That folder does not always exist or may be empty.

Thanks for your reply

But, although I added one printer, but this folder is empty. Why?

Thanks again.

AFAIR that virtual printer folder is used by installers (InstallShield or
Windows Installer) only. When installing local and/or network printers
manually, they do not show up in that folder anyway even when existing.
