I have 3 desktop PCs on a home network via router. PC (A) XP pro, PC (B) Vista home prem, PC (C) Vista home prem with printer attached to it. PC A & B are in a

seperate location from PC C. PC A & B are allways turned on, PC C is mostly turned off. Is there a way to hold print jobs from A or B while C is turned off?

Then when C is turned on and printer comes online, it will be able to retreave the waiting print jobs from A or B, then print them out. Has anyone heard of any

software or have any ideas how to do this?

I'm not entirely familiar with the specifics, but it has something to do with forwarding all printer traffic your C computer. I suggest you look into network printer management software.
