*************
Create key and fill in all information about printer, share, server etc. Rather large entry.
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Providers\LanMan Print Services\Servers\prtadmin01\Printers\1PK11-055


Test:

Create a printer Entry (BBLanier1) under HKLM, log off / log back in as a different user
00:44:20 - checks for HKCU Connections value , detects it does not exist and creates it. also assigns a port (steps above)
00:45:39 - queries it but does not do anything yet (printers and devices show 'opening')
00:45:43 - queries it but does not do anything yet (printers and devices show 'opening')
00:45:48 - queries it but does not do anything yet (printers and devices show 'opening')
00:45:58 - queries it but does not do anything yet (printers and devices show 'opening')
00:46:07 - queries it but does not do anything yet (printers and devices show 'opening')
00:46:11 - queries it but does not do anything yet (printers and devices show 'opening')
00:46:19 - queries it but does not do anything yet (printers and devices show 'opening')
00:46:27 - queries it but does not do anything yet (printers and devices show 'opening')
00:46:31 - Queries LanMan Print Services, detects it is missing. Creates the key and fills in the information:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Providers\LanMan Print Services\Servers\prtadmin01\Printers\BBLanier1

Periodically (every 10secs) checks the following key
HKCU\Printers\Connections\,,prtadmin01,BBLanier1
