I wonder how this is done in R5? E.g. Preview opens several windows, (processes spool jobs simultaneously) but AFAIK Print to File only one at a time. I think this is also hardcoded. Another thing that seems to be hardcoded in the Printers Prefs of R5 are the transport addresses for Serial/Parallel transport and that Preview printer does not need a transport add-on at all. - Michael
