I have set up two printers for the same print device (different drivers for printing from different applications). I assigned them the same priority because I wanted jobs to print in the order that they were submitted. The problem is that jobs to Printer B will not print until the queue for Printer A is completely empty. If Printer A has more jobs submitted in the meantime, they all print before Printer B gets its turn. I hope this makes sense... Any way to make the jobs print in the order submitted? Thanks. (p.s. I tried changing the printer names. The first one alphabetically seems to get the priority.)
