Dummy Printer

Does anyone know of or used a Dummy Printer program

Basically I need a program that can act like a printer i.e. buffer jobs as a printer would and pass them through at a set rate

The reason for this is to test large loads on print servers without printing reams and reams of paper

any help appreciated
 
I have a tool my boss made that runs on a windows workstation and listens on port 515 (LPD). When you send a print job it saves the control file and the spool file. If this is what you are looking for let me know.
 
Cheers

It sounds like a good start

Could you please send it to splendid_monkey (at) hotmail.com
