We print 1k to 2k docs each day by an automated process from two servers to
no less than three different printers all running the same HP driver. Office
2k at the automated server. This retains the tray2 setting in each of our
templates (dot) so that our letters print on pre-printed letterhead paper.
Lucky that any HP compliant printer will use the lowest driver in our group
of printers w/out issue and word will think that it's printing to the same
one printer.
The printers are stocked with one of four different letterheads (marketing
as four companies) and all of our letter document templates are set to print
to Tray2, but now we'd like to change printer drivers and we know that this
will set all of these dots to the default AutoSelect, (tested w/over 100hrs,
so don't try to tell me how to change a dot's settings, this won't be
retained when a new printer driver is used) which will be plain paper. We
then have to open (nearly 200 of our 600 dots) and save them as, PageSetup,
Source = Tray2. This is slow and potentially we'll open way more that the 200
only to see that they're not letterhead dots but plain paper and also could
miss a few.
So is there a way to automate? I have VB6, .Net 2008 Ent.,
TIA
