Powershell: Adding printer permissions to all network printers

hi gurus,

i've created new sec group , provisioned management access our print server; however, these permissions have not been inherited downward printers themselves.  i'm looking script apply these permissions have not had success.  any appreciated.

the below i've found during search, not know syntax of sddl access: print, manage printers, manage documents, view server, manage server.

$printers = get-printer -computername $printservername -name bld*    foreach ($printer in $printers) {       set-printer -computername $printservername -name $printer.name -permissionsddl #fill in permissions here  }
thanks in advance.
