But as hdhondt suggests, some programs DONT print to the default printer, so a simple script isn't enough. You need to capture the print, and process it according to some rules that you predefine (program x prints on printer y).
A good print/output management software can do this. But which one to choose depends on the size of your wallet. I dont know of any free ones, but you could ofcouse check and see if you might not be able to find one that suits your needs, and/or has a demo version that is sufficient to do what you want.
