For those among us who use Autohotkey, I have written a small script allowing you to enjoy printer-switching by just a few lines. I have specifically designed it to be a help for those who mainly switch between two printers (out of a pool of an unlimited number of printers). Nevertheless it is KISS-enough to be easily expandanded. You can find my script here: http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=115849 Have fun! Christian Sentis Hi there,
