Hi,
I have an Epson 9900 printer. The big sucker. I use it for a few weeks, then it will sit unused for up to a month at a time. I'm looking to setup my Mac to print automatically everyday (when I don't need the printer) to prevent nozzle clogs. When the printer isn't in use, it becomes clogged and takes some time and a large loss of ink to unclog it.
My question:
1. Is it possible in any Mac-friendly program or with the print utility to schedule specific print times. ie. Print the same document (photo) twice a day, for a month.
2. Is this possible with the print utilities old 'scheduler' option?
* I have a few Macs. Some run Leopard, Snow leopard or Lion. I can use any of them to hook up to the printer. I realize they took away the scheduler option in Lion, however I can use a mac running Leopard to schedule my printing. I can only see an option for scheduling printing within a 24 hour period. Doesn't look like I can say 'print EVERY day at 9pm and 9AM' or print every 12 hours, etc.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
