duplicating a printer for different defaults

[gntmkt]

Can I duplicate a printer on my system? I'm using Adobe PDF distiller
as a printer and it's set with specific parameters for different types
of output (pre press, web, etc.) I'd like to have a separate instance
of the pdf printer for each type of output required. It would be
faster just selecting a printer than reconfiguring it each time for a
different type output.

I was hoping to find a "duplicate" or "copy" command under the
printers menu but didn't see one. What's the easiest way to set this
up?

Make a new printer and set the defaults differently for each configuration
you wish. I normally name my functionally different sets to indicate how
they are configured
