We have a networked laser printer at work which we use for two different tasks. One of them needs high quality printing, and for the other we prefer to use the lowest quality available, mainly for toner saving.
Is a PITA to change between the two configurations every time we print, so... Is it possible to install the same printer two times at the same time, for example one with name and configuration "High quality", and the other "Low quality", and send the jobs to one or another?
Please excuse me, it seems I didn't explained myself correctly. What I'm asking is exactly how to do what you say, I'm on Windows XP and it doesn't allow me to add the same printer again. – Saiyine – 2012-05-30T07:19:36.690

I have installed multiple copies of the same printer on XP before. So, there must be some restriction which is stopping you, like a group policy or profile restriction. Do you have administrator privileges? As far as

instructions, here are some for you.1Ok, the problem was the printer being connected to another computer and I trying to connect to it more than one time. You can do it locally, so your answer is correct even if it doesn't help me :(. One point for you. – Saiyine – 2012-06-15T07:57:57.663
