Print Options with new Konica printers

[karn]

I would like to be able to use the full options of the konica printers to staple, sucure print etc. Does anyone have an idea of what the optin names would be? Karn.

Hi Karn,
These things can be done with code, but it's not for the faint hearted. My workaround for this is to add another copy of the printer with an appropriate name eg Staple, and set the printer properties to the desired result. You can then just change the ActivePrinter to the chosen name. I run about 12 versions for paper compinations/watermark/staple/duplex from a userform interface.
Check the KB for some examples.

We have a total of 5 different konica printers on one floor all with three different tray counts and output trays. The main issue is the secure print as our users will not read the screens to chose the correct option, they are hand feed.

Here's a lonk for Duplex printing. I know nothing about secure printing, but maybe this will demonstrate the approach to handling your printers.
