You could script it with an AutoIT script, which just manipulates the screen automatically for the user. I use it a lot around here for a variety of things. ________________________________ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jim Kenzig http://ThinHelp.com Sent: Friday, November 03, 2006 10:10 AM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx; windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Is it possible to change just the printer properties with a shortcut? Does anyone know of a utility or can suggest a good way that I can create a shortcut that changes a property on a printer and then change it back? I was thinking of maybe doing it in an Altiris rip file but there has to be an easier way. The idea I have and what I want to do is be able to create 2 shortcuts on a users desktop to create a quick way to change from single sided to double sided printing without having to click a dozen times to find it in printer properties. One to turn on double sided printing for the printer and a second one that resets the printer back to single sided printing. Anyone tried this? I know I could probably do it with a reg file but we do not allow our users access to running regedit.
