Replacing printers.csv with a newer/updated printers.csv via Intune
What I've been doing was just writing a script to delete the printer.csv file.
The policy to deploy the .intunewin will detect the file isn't there anymore and push the printer.csv down again. Though you have to update the .intunewin file with updated .csv files which is a constant pain if you add new printers.
Removing old decommissioned UP printers is also not easy.

Mailmansgotmail Hey, just wondering if you were using some logic in your script do detect if the printers are installed before deleting the printers.csv file.
I am struggling with the same problem and looking at deleting the file as well, but want to make sure I am not deleting it before its used by the Universal Print service to install the printers.
I have 45 schools on my hands, so I'm not interested in creating new packages for every school when they get a new printer as it would be a colossal mess. I just want 1 package per school, and just update it when needed....odd that Microsoft didn't use configuration profiles instead of cobbling together .csv files...easy to deploy and easy to update.
Thanks
