  Slightly OT: 2 USB printers on one Mac?

  Posted by David Roth weiss on July 7, 2009 at 4:57 pm

  Anyone have success running 2 Epson (or other brands) of inkjet printers on one Mac? I’ve got a bunch of DVDs to print here…

  TIA,
  David

  You can do it. I just tried it out on my RX595 and RX580.

  I usually hook up the second printer to my other computer.

  Thanks Steve, but I just found out from a friend that you can’t print to both printers at the same time, so hooking-up tow won’t accomplish much for me.

  Here is how I did it. I have 2 versions of Discus on my system. Version 4.21 and 4.23. I open each project from both versions and select print. They both printed at the same time.

  It obviously will not print to both printers from 1 application.

  I also have Discus version 3.16 on the same system. I’m not going to try with a third printer. I’m sure it will work.
