Moved topic to this forum.

Although I'm not a Windows expert, I don't think a script can do that. I know you can't switch printers on a Mac without using AppleScript. When this topic came up a couple of months ago, Chuck suggested a windows utility called Winbatch which provides macro capabilities in Windows similar to Applescript on a Mac. Check it out.

I have two diferent printers shared in a LAN. One configured in A4 paper format and the other one in letter format. The problem is that if I print from FM to one of the printers and then i want to print to the other one i have also to change the papper format,

Use a script to switch printers. In your script use the Printer Setup step to tell FMP which printer and format you want to use.

HTH

For this sample is imposible!!!

If you have a script with PRINTER 1 and other script with PRINTER 2 when you run the script 1 or 2, FMP only prints in default printer.

Is it posible in FMP do this :

No. FMP cannot switch printers, this is a function of the operating system.

Printer switching can be achieved with OS scripting utilities like AppleScript (on Macintosh, built-into the OS) or WinBatch for Windows (third-party product, commercial).

I have no experience with either.
