Hi,

We use PDFCreator to create PDF files. When printing multiple pages/documents, it can happen that page 2 is spooled faster as page 1. As a result, the pages aren't ordered.
This can be solved by setting the printer to "directly print"; documents don't get spooled this way.
I used Regmon to trace which registry values are changed when I alter this setting and exported those values to a .reg file:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Printers\PDFCreator\DsSpooler]
"printSpooling"="PrintDirect"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Print\Printers\PDFCreator\DsSpooler]
"printSpooling"="PrintDirect"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers\PDFCreator\DsSpooler]
"printSpooling"="PrintDirect"
Using the Startup-script, I import those settings on all PC's. Although the reg-values are change, the printersetting does _not_ change? I guess I have to make some other reg-changes as well, but I don't know which ones?
