ABSTRACT:
A manner of specifying a document to be printed to multiple output mechanisms, including multiple printers and multiple output bins of each printer. Print specification data is received for an electronic document that is desired to be printed. The print specification data specifies two or more output mechanisms. An output mechanism is any potential entity that may be identified to receive one or more printed copies of electronic documents. Non-limiting, illustrative examples of output mechanisms includes the output bin of a single bin printer, a particular output bin of a multiple bin printer, or the output bin of a fax machine. Each of the two or more output mechanisms receives at least one printed copy of the electronic document. Thereafter, the print specification data is processed to initiate printing of the electronic document to the two or more output mechanisms.
