I was hoping that someone that knows more than I do would junp into this
thread.
Printers & Faxes for some reason doesn't have a *.cpl file.
Neither do Administrative Tools, Fonts, Scanners and Cameras, Scheduled
Tasks or Taskbar and Start Menu.
They are Namespace objects. Whatever that is. Has something to do with
being a shell folder with its own GUID.
This will display the Printers & Faxes folder...
Start | Run | Type or paste: Control printers | Click OK
-- Hope this helps. Let us know.
