Adding a printer alias - second reference to printer with different properties

We have a software program that requires us to set up a "Printer Alias". Looks like you have 2 shared names for the same printer and set the properties separately for them . Purpose is so we can refer to another name when requiring to print to a second tray.

Thanks that pointed me in the right direction - I was trying to attach to a network printer rather than local one in wizard.
Ah yes, the good old network printer furphy: as far as M$ are concerned, a printer that plugs into your network is a *local* printer, only printers attached to other PCs are network printers...

Thanks for the points!
