I have an HP Photosmart 2710 multifunction printer. Does anyone know how to go about making additional instances of such a printer? Installing the printer isn't straightforward like with a regular printer where you just point the printer wizard at the drivers. You have to run HP's bloated setup routine. I tried running it a 2nd time to get an additional instance and that just hosed up the existing installation and I had to uninstall and start over. Thx
 
If it has a unique USB hardcoded ID, you can't. The PC will know that it is
the same printer. Please use plain text for Newsgroups.
