re multiple printers through print manager in article lance lance lancea actrix gen nz lance lancea actrix gen nz lance andrewes writes how does print manager deal with multiple printers we re planning to print to two printers from an application one will be a real printer and the other a fax program will print manager just deal with the jobs one at a time or will it feed to both printers at once please research carefully just because a fax modem behaves like a printer on a local machine doesn t guarantee functionality when a local machine has fax software printing to a remotely installed fax card i tried this with workgroups and the fax software didn t like it at all could have been winfax s peculiarisms but i don t think so a lot of special hardware interaction takes place internally in my case a fax manager program merely intercepts the print job and spools it to it s own directory not print manager s spool directory to software it appears the job was printed print manager plays no part in the handling of the actual process pardon me if i ve incorrectly assumed this is what you were up to a truely network aware fax modem will most likely be required or a lot of weird setup and tinkering good luck
