printers...

Hi everyone, Do any of you know exactly how or where to gather printer ids? I've
tried using the url that JAMF provides in the kb but couldn't get what I
needed.

Should just be when you go into the JSS web, Casper Admin, and select the printer there...the ID should be the last part.

Is that not working?

I can get them through Casper Admin but didn't see them within the JSS. However, what I would like to do is be able to query the file they are in
on the JSS so that I can script adding them to user printer lists. Currently, I have policies for all buildings and faculty map all printers
for their building within that policy. All printers are named
MODEL-BUILDING-BARCODE so that we can easily identify the printers and add
all printers for a particular building to it's respective policy. I'd
like to be able to grep on that building name and install via printer id
that's associated.
