Hi all!

I've had a dicken's of a time getting my Shared Epson Stylus CX6600 to work across a network - Epson has all these gimmicky print drivers/software that get installed to "monitor" the printer - which take resources, and don' seem to work when trying to print from one XPPro -to the shared Epson on another XPpro computer.

As a 2nd solution, I wanted to install software on the host computer (that has the printer) that monitors a directory and automatically prints files that get put there.

I know I found this software once a long time ago that would print .ps files...but can't seem to find it anymore (it was freeware).

Anyone know of something like this that can print .ps, pdf, or perhaps others? It'd be great if it was free...but....... :)

Bingo! That is exactly the program I used to use about 4-5 years ago - but there have been so many reformats and reinstalls it got lost........

Thanks so much for finding that for me again!

Hi KWO,
I know the exact solution to your 2nd problem. FolderMill is the software that i use for automatic printing of the docuemnts. FolderMill has an incoming folder where the documents automatically lands after saving. It is very easy to set-up. It has made my work efficient. Check this link for more details - http://www.foldermill.com/news/automate-printing-documents

I know the post is old but can help anyone reading.Thanks
