As a paper saving drive throughout the organization, we plan to set 2 page printing (back to back) as default setting on all the Windows machines. Is it possible to program this in .NET / Java (or any scripting language)? Can we change printer properties by a program?
Thanks for your time.
Can be done with WMI using VBScript or Powershell.
