Windows XP Professional does not have Document name on Separator P

[WmWeil]

Tasks performed:
On a Windows 98 Second Edition... we print aprox 50,000 PDF Pages over the
weekend... this has a nice banner page, Date, Time, User name and Document
Name.

Problem:
The new Windows XP Professinal PC Separator Pages in
c:\windows\system32\*.sep does not contain the Document Name. I can not
locate how to code this into a PCL Separator page? Can this be done? We
want to switch to the new PC to Print... But we need a Cover Page to Identify
each report?
Any Ideas?

I don't see the document name listed in the switches. Check the Win98
separator document to see how that is performed.

Yes, I realize this.. but I am hoping there might be un-documented switches
you do not have for some reason.

The printers settings has a banner page that prints the path and document
name...
but your Separator pages do not have Document Name? Why, did you leave this
out? I have seen so many people are looking for this feature!

We need to have this for our Weekend printing...

Windows 98 has on the general page a setting for Separator pages.. none,
simple or full... you do not have files to choose from it is part of system
software.

You need to have developers modify Win XP to allow for a Document Name in
the Separator Pages... I can not see how this was missed.

ok.. since you do not have document name in separator pages... I found a
solution with out Microsofts help.
1) download Printraw.exe from WWW.ANDTECHNOLOGIES.COM which is freeware
2) I created several programs with batch jobs from a Dos prompt and in
Send_To from Windows Explorer... its faster than printing thru Adobe and
spooling.. this sends a PDF very fast to the Canon Image Runner 7095.. I
recomment this exec to everyone on Planet Earth... lol
