BullZip Home

Using Bullzip installed on a Windows PC, can i send a PCL print to it from an evil old SCO box on port 9100 and ask it to:

1. Overlay the print on an existing PDF or PS file
2. Print 3 copies, each with a different overlay or different watermark (customer copy, etc.)
3. Save a copy of the PDF in a directory structure
4. name the saved PDF copy according to the incoming print name, username, date, time, etc.

trying to find a way to replace an existing pin printer that prints to 3 part colored forms.

after looking thru the docs.

1. Overlay the print on an existing PDF or PS file
- yes

2. Print 3 copies, each with a different overlay or different watermark (customer copy, etc.)
"The AfterPrintProgram setting is a hook into the printing process. If you specify this setting it must contain a file name of an external program to launch when the PDF document is created. The external program will receive the file name of the settings file as a parameter. The printer will not continue before the external program has terminated."

- could the "AfterPrintProgram" be used to send 3 copys with 3 different watermarks to a printer ?

3. Save a copy of the PDF in a directory structure
- yes

4. name the saved PDF copy according to the incoming print name, username, date, time, etc.
-yes

Oops, just found a post dated Jul 05, 2008 saying:

The Bullzip PDF Printer does not support sharing. Sorry!

I presume that means that a print cannot be sent to this printer from another source not located on the PC bullzip is installed on.
