I have got a 290 od page manual to print which contains mostly black text with the odd colour graphic etc.
Trying to print this out on a canon photo printer is not really a viable option as the costs of ink are just too high. (PIXIMA 8500)
I also have a HP laserjet 6P. This is fantastic for printing Black on White and I'm still on the original cartridge after over 7 years and I have put boxes nevermind reams of paper through this printer!.
What I would like to be able to do is print all the text on the laser printer with spaces where the colour graphics etc go, then load the printed pages into the canon and print the colour graphics.
Obviously this would most likely require calibrating to get the positioning correct.
Does anyone know of any software (preferably free) which would allow me to carry out two pass printing like this.
Thanks.
Suggestions for alternative ways also appreciated.
