Remove Duplicate Printers from AD

Hi

Wonder if someone can help please?. We have several shared network
printers which are published in AD. Problem is that the printers are
showing up TWICE in AD. i.e. when a network user searches for a
printer then they see two instances of \\server\printer1 etc. Pruning
hasn't removed the duplicate entry.

Our print server was rebuilt after a failure a while back. During the
reinstall printers were re-added and shared in AD. I believe this is
the root of the problem.

Question is, how do I (a) identify (b) remove, the "dead" printers?

It's not a huge problem, just be nice to clean up our AD listed network
printers.

Many thanks

BC
