print-out time

[Guest]

hi,

I am on a network.I can get print-out from 2 printers. when I choose to
print on X printer, if there is for example 5 pages to be printed or 1 page
that is being printed in best quality, I do not want to wait them, macro will
automaticilly detect other printer Y if it has less documents than printer X
so I will get the docs from Y.

main aim is to get the docs in the shortes time, u can use different logic
for macro.

regards.

I have not seen any VBA code that interfaces with the print queue. That does
not mean that there is none. I just have not seen any.

I did find this site on the web that might be what you are looking for:

http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/pub0009/LPMArticle.asp?ID=183

Scroll down a couple of pages and there is a section that deals with
multiple printers on a net. It shows VBA code for checking the print queue
for the printers to determine which is ready, etc. Maybe that will help you.
