Hi,

We are trying to read print events from our Win2K8 print server by adapting a script we have been using for Win2K3.

This is the code we are using to read the System event log

# Retrieve the event log and entries 
$EventLog=[System.Diagnostics.EventLog]::GetEventlogs($servername) 
$Systemlog = $EventLog |? {$_.log -eq 'System'} 
$events = $SystemLog.Entries | Where {$_.eventid -eq 10 -AND $_.Source -eq "Print" -AND $_.Timegenerated -gt (Get-Date).adddays(-1) } | select Username, Timegenerated, Message

However in 2k8R2 they have moved print events from the System log to PrintService within Applications and Services Logs\Microsoft\Windows\PrintService\Operational

How can I read from this section as my google searching seems to be failing.

Thanks

As outlined here:http://social.technet.microsoft.com/...-fa685514e9f7/

Use the Get-WinEvent cmdlet

Thanks for that, not sure how I missed that, but have noticed a problem with the event viewer, but will post in the 2008 thread as it is not to do with powershell.

Thanks

Dave
