    Hello,

    You can determine which computer is using the local printers. Look at the Syntax here and adjust the scrip according to your needs.

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/printmanagement/get-printer?view=windowsserver2019-ps

    You can try to use also

    Get-WMIObject Win32_Printer -ComputerName $Comp

    Or:

    New-PSSession $Comp | Enter-PSSession
    Get-ChildItem Registry::\HKEY_Users\$UserSID\Printers
