function Set-AdAclCreateDeletePrintQueue {
    <#
        .SYNOPSIS
            Delegates permissions to a group for creating and deleting Print Queue objects in an OU.

        .DESCRIPTION
            The Set-AdAclCreateDeletePrintQueue function delegates the necessary Active Directory
            permissions to allow a specified group to create and delete print queue objects within
            a specified container or organizational unit (OU).

            The function adds an Access Control Entry (ACE) to the specified OU granting
            CreateChild and DeleteChild rights specifically for printQueue objects. This enables
            the delegated group to create new print queues and delete existing print queues
            within the specified OU.

            When the -RemoveRule parameter is used, the function removes these permissions instead
            of granting them.

        .PARAMETER Group
            Identity of the group getting the delegation. Can be specified as SamAccountName,
            DistinguishedName, ObjectGUID, or SID.

        .PARAMETER LDAPpath
            Distinguished Name of the object (or container) where the permissions are going to
            be configured. This is typically an Organizational Unit where print queues are managed.

        .PARAMETER RemoveRule
            If present, the access rule will be removed instead of being added.

        .PARAMETER Force
            If present, the function will not ask for confirmation when performing actions.

        .EXAMPLE
            Set-AdAclCreateDeletePrintQueue -Group "SG_PrintAdmins_XXXX" -LDAPPath "OU=PrintQueues,OU=XXXX,OU=Sites,DC=EguibarIT,DC=local"

            Delegates the permissions for the group "SG_PrintAdmins_XXXX" to create and delete
            print queue objects in the specified OU.

        .EXAMPLE
            Set-AdAclCreateDeletePrintQueue -Group "SG_PrintAdmins_XXXX" -LDAPPath "OU=PrintQueues,OU=XXXX,OU=Sites,DC=EguibarIT,DC=local" -RemoveRule

            Removes the permissions for the group "SG_PrintAdmins_XXXX" to create and delete
            print queue objects in the specified OU.

        .EXAMPLE
            $Splat = @{
                Group = "SG_PrintAdmins_XXXX"
                LDAPPath = "OU=PrintQueues,OU=XXXX,OU=Sites,DC=EguibarIT,DC=local"
                Force = $true
            }
            Set-AdAclCreateDeletePrintQueue @Splat

            Delegates the permissions without prompting for confirmation.

        .INPUTS
            System.String for Group and LDAPpath parameters.

        .OUTPUTS
            System.Void
