Does anyone know how I can schedule a Print job.
I want to be able to run a colour print test to my canon printer when I'm not here so the print heads don't dry out.

set a scheduled task to run, outputing a file to the lpt port that the printer is connected to. just set up a basic batch file as you would to print from a dos command and schedule it for whenever you want!
