I have somewhere in the region of nineteen billion printers connected to my PC. I found that irfanview could print images to them from the command line, and decided that that would be decidedly kickass, and set out to do it.
Problem is, it will only print to the default printer.
My syntax is
, and it completely ignores my herpety and derpety, and prints to some awful Epson inkjet that nobody cares about.
This would be fine if I was a normal user, but I'm not, and different prints must go to different printers.
My current solution is to, (brace yourself, this is stupid), run a virtual machine for each printer, filter the printer to that VM only, run listener scripts on every virtual machine, and shunt prints to the corresponding virtual machine when I want to print something.
This is awful, and completely unscalable. Please help.
