buy a license for it, or failing that, print to one printer then print to the other?

might buy a licence but its £75 and there must be a way around it. I cant send to one and then the other as its for work and its a busy warehouse/office so needs to come out in both places at same time

Are the two printers the same?

Just reading some stuff about print pooling but it requires that the all have the same driver.

thanks for replies, yeh they could pay for it but im a partner in it so dont really want to lol
No way they can click print twice, time is already short when they have 200 to 300 invoices to print in an hour.
Ian have seen that before but cant really work out how to use it? what port do i put in etc?
thanks

what if hes printing it so one comes out in the office, one in the warehouse then you would waste more time printing them both on one printer, then taking it to the warehouse etc.

Gonna have to buy the program (whats £75 when it saves you hours in a week/month)
