Is it possible to grab "custom" printer icons like the ones on the multi-printers (the 3 visible in the picture) in Windows 10? I've had a look in shell32.dll and DDORes.dll but can't see the multifunction printer icons in there. Where are they stored? If it is possible to grab them from somewhere, is it possible to read which icon the printer should be using with WMI or something else?

@JohnB I have no code, this is an information request. I have stated that I looked in the shell32.dll and DDORes.dll files which sometimes contain windows related icons but could not find the multifunction printer icons in them. I really don't know what else I can say. Any suggestions would be great. – Orion Nov 05 '18 at 06:05

The image locations can be found in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceMetadataCache\dmrccache\en-US when using Windows 10. I had found info regarding the Windows 7 location which is slightly different to how it is now.
