Batch Script Errors Works on my laptop but not others

[wchristner]

IOk So I have my batch file which works great on my laptop. However when I try to run this thing from a flash drive, it gives me two errors,
1 argument is invalid error
2 Windows cannot locate suitable printer driver.
The paths on which the printer drivers are located are correct. All PC's are on the same domain and have local admin rights. All laptops here
Can access the network folders no problem and I can Ping the printers so they are online.

Any help would be appreciated
Here is what I have so far. Prnport.vbs is on the flash drive and my path on line 40 and 64 points to it.
I am using notepad ++ to edit this. I am currently at a loss. If anyone had any experience and would like to help out
Please do. I would appreciate it.

You said that Prnport.vbs is on the flash drive, but none of these lines point to it properly. If it is in the same directory as the batch itself, try "%~dp0\Prnport.vbs".

I updated the paths, to cscript %WINDIR%\F:\Prnport.vbs on all printer installs, not working I am going to try kwsiebert's suggestion. Thanks I will let you know what happens

[wchristner]

well the only thing i can get working is option 4 the exit command
thanks anyway, any more ideas ... i'm open to them.

[foxidrive]

I updated the paths, to cscript %WINDIR%\F:\Prnport.vbs on all printer installs

That's going to resolve to "c:\windows\F:\Prnport.vbs"

You could use F:\Prnport.vbs but then the USB drive letter can easily change.

If the VBS file is in the same folder then just Prnport.vbs should work, unless elevating permissions is being used when kwsiebert's suggestion is needed.

[kwsiebert]

Is the error message still the same? What line is causing it? Please provide as much detail as possible. Due to it relying on the vbs file and printers, other people can't test the script themselves.

I also see that if someone enters an option other than 1-4, it's going to fall through to option 1.

[wchristner]

The message is still the same.
:The Arguments are Invalid
