Is there any way to mass remove all local and network mapped printers from all workstations on a domain via group policy or a batch file?

I need to remove local Windows 7 printers such as Fax, Microsoft XPS Document Writer, Send To OneNote 2010.

There is a Delete All option in Group Policy Client Side Preferences for Shared Printers. It's in User Policy.

All printers are stored in the following location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers

Deleting the entries/subfolders there should remove both local and network printers.
