Getting a list of printers added to users workstation

How do I get a list of user's printers on a local machine - similar to the
print dialog?

This would require an ActiveX control or a Java applet on the client page.

Actually, WSH (Windows Script Host) provides a
WshNetwork.EnumPrinterConnections method. Every client would need to setup
special security to allow WSH calls.
