One of the functionalities offered by the PrintNode API is the \u003cstrong\u003eList Printers\u003c\/strong\u003e endpoint which, as its name suggests, allows users to retrieve a list of printers that are associated with their PrintNode account.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eUsage of the List Printers Endpoint\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ccode\u003eList Printers\u003c\/code\u003e endpoint is a GET request that returns an array of printer objects.
