Good idea, but there occurs the 2. problem the printer is not connected to a device it is a networked printer. the inputfilter sends the data via telnet directly to the printer, which has so much memory, that he accept print-job at once. Our main problem isnīt that the printer do not print it works the problem is our way to count the pages. This is don with the same script and so tit is required that only one printerqueue send data.
