I was having an issue RDPing to a print server and the only other way was to using Server Management tools to manipulate the print services.
I was curious to find out if this was possible using Powershell and I research it and these are the commands I discovered.
Note: There was no direct Powershell command to execute a Test Print Page so this feature has to be manipulated using Invoke-CimMethod using WMI print class which can be found here.
