Automatic production of outputs is done using a task manager (eg: The Windows task manager - Start / All programs / Accesories/ System tools/ Scheduled tasks) to run Printer Squirrel at regular intervals with command line options specifying which outputs to produce.
The first step is to create the output schemes. (Taking note af the scheme number)
For example suppose you created these three output schemes:
Scheme - (ID = 4)
Name - HPLaser Scheme 1
Printer - HPLaser
Base report - Basic log report
Query - DateQuery (date > today() -7)
Print this report = No
Send to file = Yes
Print Preview = n/a (Print preview is not invoked on automatic reports)
Email this report to printer owner = Yes
Scheme - (ID = 6)
Name - Kyocera Scheme 1
Printer - Kyocera color laser
Base report - Basic log report
Query - DateQuery (date > today() -7)
Print this report = Yes
Print Preview = n/a
Send to file = No
Email this report to printer owner = Yes
Scheme - (ID = 9)
Name - Kyocera users chart
Printer - Kyocera color laser
Base report - User activity chart
Query - DateQuery (date > today() -7)
Print this report = No
Print Preview = n/a
Send to file = No
Email this report to printer owner = Yes
You would then set your task manager to run this command every 7 days
c:\program files\PrnLogServer\PSquirrel.exe 4 6 9
This will run Printer Squirrel (in silent mode) which will produce the outputs as necessary, then exit.
In this case:
Email and save a file copy of HPLaser scheme1.
Print a copy of Kyocera scheme 1.
Email a copy of Kyocera users chart.
You can specify up to 50 outputs on the command line.
