This might be a bit obscure, but technically dont see why it should not be possible... Basically I want to be able to scan a document on a scanner connected to one computer and have it print to a printer connected to another computer. So ideally would work just like a photocopier where everything happens automatically - you just scan the page and out pops the copy on the printer.
This is how I think it should work - but not sure how to implement everything.
1. I would need to assign a button on the scanner to 'scan to PDF'. This would scan the document in the scanner and save it as a PDF across the network onto the PC with the printer attached to it.
2. The folder will need to be a hot folder that automatically prints anything that gets put in that folder, then automatically deletes the file after it prints.
Any advice or help would be awesome - especially on how to setup a hot folder that would automatically print and delete any PDFs in that folder.
