NAME Read-PrinterNfcTag
SYNOPSIS
Reads information about printers from an NFC tag.
SYNTAX
Read-PrinterNfcTag [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
The Read-PrinterNfcTag cmdlet reads information about printers from the near field communication (NFC) tag that anyone taps against the default NFC
reader for the system. The cmdlet returns the printer information that it reads as a table that contains the value of the SharePath property and the
value and the wsdAddress property for the printers.
PARAMETERS
-CimSession [<CimSession[]>]
Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or
Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-ThrottleLimit [<Int32>]
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is
entered, then Windows PowerShell???? calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the
computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,
ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,
OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable. For more information, see
about_CommonParameters (https:/go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=113216).
INPUTS
OUTPUTS
Example 1: Read an NFC tag
PS C:\\> $Tag = Read-PrinterNfcTag
PS C:\\> Write-PrinterNfcTag $Tag
This first command reads printer connection data from the next NFC tag that someone taps against the NFC reader. The command stores the printer
information in the $Tag variable.
The second command uses the Write-PrinterNfcTag to write the printer connection information stored in $Tag to an NFC tag.
Example 2: Modify the share path of a printer connection
PS C:\\> $Tag = Read-PrinterNfcTag
PS C:\\> $Tag.SharePaths = "\\\\ntprint\\b27-3697-b"
This first command reads printer connection information from the next NFC tag that someone taps against the NFC reader. The command stores the printer
information in the $Tag variable.
The second command changes the share path of the shared printers stored in $Tag. The command uses standard dot syntax to access the SharePaths property
of the object stored in $Tag.
