def _installPrinter(username, networkPath, name):
    logging.debug("_installPrinter Printer {0} on {1}".format(name, networkPath))
    installCommand = ["timeout", "5", "lpadmin", "-p", name, "-E", "-v", networkPath, "-m", "everywhere", "-u", f"allow:{username}"]
    logging.debug("* running '{}'".format(" ".join(installCommand)))
    p = subprocess.Popen(installCommand, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
    output, error = p.communicate()
    if p.returncode  == 0:
        logging.debug("* Success _installPrinter!")
        return True
    elif p.returncode == 124:
        logging.debug("* Error Timeout lpadmin")
    else:
        logging.debug(f"* Error installing printer {name} on {networkPath}!\n")
        logging.debug(f"* stderr: {error}")
    return False
