Printer mapping based on device

Our environment is setup with pools that are floating linked-clones.  We current have a VBS script that maps printers and the default printer based on the PC that a user logins to.  Example

User first logins to device A and gets this:

Laser_1 - default

Laser_2

Laser_3

User disconnects and reconnects to device B

Laser_1

Laser_2 - default

Laser_3

User disconnects and reconnects to device C

Laser_4 - default

Laser_5

User's session will now have all 5 printers which is okay. The main thing is that he gets the assigned printers and the default printer based on the device that he is on.

Is it possible to do this with UEM so that we can do away with the VBS script?

Yes it would be possible with UEM. You would need to create 6 printer mappings and use conditions to limit how they apply based on PC name/Device IP. 3 should have the set as default and 3 without set as default. Apply them based on the conditions.
