I am trying to send report directly from Report Caster to a printer which is fine. But I need to send multiple copies to the same printer and I don't see an option for the same. Is there a way to send multiple copies of the same report to the same printer?

Thanks,
Dayakar.

well, there's always a way. Just not always the way you would think. There is no option for having the printer print multiple copies. I would suggest sending the file to a printer distribution list. The distribution list would contain the same printer multiple times. So you get multiple copies. Another suggestion is to set up a queue on the printer that prints multiple copies of whatever document is sent to the queue. Then just set up RC to send to that specific printer queue.


Regards,

Darin

Thanks Darin, never thought of it. First option seem to be a better one for me.
