    MAPADOC is using the Sage Task Scheduler to run 5-6 of their reports that are located on the MAPADOC menu. That works fine now. The problem is that the Task Scheduler log automatically prints out after the task running. We want to stop this printing as we run this every 15 minutes 7 days per week. Anyone have any experience with Task Scheduler automatically printing this log?

    Done by Sage, with no way to disable it, which is very frustrating. The only idea I have (untested) is to set up a local print queue as the default printer on the profile used, and pause the queue. It should just print to the paused queue then, and not waste all the paper.

    it is just how sage operates the task scheduler. Although i did see a post by Elliot on sage city that they need to evaluate this behavior and possibly change it. One way around this is to set up a fake printer on the PC running the task with a port pointing to a path and file to write the output to and set the driver to the Generic/Text Only. Make sure whatever windows user account the task runs under has access to the path set in the port. Then set the default printer for the windows account running the task to the fake printer.

    Kevin's paused print queue is a good idea too.
