No, I think.
I get:
$ cat test_pr.sh
#!/bin/bash
p='/proc/registry/HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Windows
NT/CurrentVersion/Windows/Device'
[ -e "${p}" ] && read -r PRINTER < "${p}" && PRINTER=${PRINTER%%,*}
echo 'echo $PRINTER'
echo $PRINTER
$ ./test_pr.sh
echo $PRINTER
HP Deskjet 3740 Series,winspool,Ne03:
----------------------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
which is *wrong*. See ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ above!
With base-files-4.0-4 I get:
$ echo $PRINTER
HP Deskjet 3740 Series
which is right.
Ciao,
Angelo.
