R: Thank to all answering..Printing the same spool file in TWO printers in the same time

["Marco Stanghellini" <mstanga@xxxxxx>]

I want to thank all the people who tried solving my problem.
I think that using SENNETSPLF to another user in the WEKDIRE will fit all my
problem.

Thanks a lot again

This'll work, but it has a couple of severe disadvantages. Firstly you have
to modify and therefore complicate the application program. Secondly, the
page number will be reset to one when the printer file is re-opened, which
obviously affects the output if page numbers are printed. I'm not sure if
there's a way round this.
