How can I create a desktop shortcut to a printer's queue on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit?
Thanks.
For any future searchers, what worked for me is a little different from what's in the accepted answer, so I added it in the comments for the accepted answer.

Just open Devices and Printers, Right-click the printer, and click "Create shortcut".
It will put the shortcut on your desktop and you can then move it wherever you want.
You can see the one I created, and opened by clicking the shortcut to the right in this screenshot:

1I was just coming to delete this question. I did it by dragging the See What's Printing button to the desktop. When I did what you were saying, the shortcut opened printer's main page and I still had to click on "See what's printing" or "Printer:ready" to see the queue. But, thanks just the same. – CChriss – 2011-08-01T23:48:28.610
