Looking into it

Under the "Manage -> Printers -> %Printername% -> Printer connectors" we are presented with the fact that a printer is connected to a connector server as it is displayed with the name of the connector.

 

However, if a printer has been added as a 'UP Ready' printer instead of a connector name it says "No rows to display".
Also when the value of Connectors.DisplayName is exported with powershell the UP Ready printers just have an empty value.
Other then that there are few obvious clues that a printer has been added as UP Ready.

 

Can we improve the visibility of "UP Ready" printers in the dashboard and powershell somehow?
Maybe add a "Not installed on Printer connector. UP Ready Printer." or just "UP Ready Printer." under the Printer connectors tab?
Or maybe add a new property "UP Ready" with "Yes/No" under "Manage -> Printers -> %Printername% -> Overview"?
