2-Way splitter for print job


atomical

Recommended Posts

Hello!

I want my windows to print a copy of one print job automatically to a second printer driver, because the software could not manage that.

Maybe writing a script would solve the problem - but where and how I should do this?

Maybe there is an existing solution to do something similar ...

Any hints?

==================================================================

The original text in German:

Es soll eine komplette Rechnung in doppelter Ausführung ausgedruckt werden.

Die erste - originale - Ausführung auf Kopfbogen und die zweite auf Normalpapier mit vom Druckertreiber generiertem Wasserzeichen (Kopie).

Hintergrund ist, das das verwendete Programm nicht in der Lage ist, einen Druckauftrag gleichzeitig an zwei verschiedene Drucker zu senden.

Prinzipiell will ich also, das ein Druckauftrag, der an einen Drucker gesendet wurde, jeweils mit entsprechenden Optionen an den Kopfbogendrucker und den Kopieendrucker geleitet wird.

XtremeMaC: That is similar to what we have at my work, but it is done off of the main PDC (where the network printers are installed). I doubt that would help him much, as I dont thing he wants to setup a domain just to get his printers working the way he wants...

I know there is a way to do it with just one computer, its a special version of a switch box or something, I remember hearing about them once.
