Autoprint

Recommended Posts

I use a program called "MIS Autoprint" to schedule my sublimation printers to auto-print a file (purge4) every 3 days to keep the heads in good shape when I am away. This is on an XP computer. The new computer, running windows 7 (64 bit) will not run this program and there is no update for the program. Do any of you know of any auto-print program that will do this operation?

You might be able to accomplish this in Windows 7 itself using the "Task Scheduler"...

 

Use Irfanview exe as the Action with the /print switch. If you use some other program you must find out what the command line switch to print is.

These are the Action tab entries:
"C:\Program Files\Irfanview\i_view32.exe"
"C:\users\mark\pictures\AutoPrint.jpg" /print.
The first line points to Irfanview.exe and is entered in the Script/program field and the second line is the file with the /print switch. and is entered in the Argument field. Hope this helps.

I will try this in the morning. Thanks.

I have all of my printers configured as Google Cloud Printers and have a reminder set on my phone to print test pages once a week - I can initiate the test page print from anywhere I have internet access through Google Cloud Print.  That way I can determine if I just printed something and don't need to waste paper/ink on a test page.
