RE: WSCST type function on IPDS printer type

Yep,

That could happen.

Have you considered just buying another printer for the invoices?

I don't think the problem is big enough to warrant that. The invoice job is big, but only once a week.

Or maybe adding a paper drawer to the one you have?

The printer has one 2000 sheet drawer and two smaller ones. The users don't want to constantly refill the smaller ones, so they want all the paper (invoice forms an plain as needed) in the big drawer. No easy way out. :-)

Thanks.
