We would like to print tickets from two different ticket stocks and are considering buying BOCA Lemur-2's that have two paths. Is anyone successfully using a dual path printer with Tessitura? Tess. doesn't currently support dual paths but I thought someone might have a workaround such as (just for example) configuring the BOCA each time to switch to one path or the other. We are just trying to avoid having two single path printers at each ticketing location, which seems a waste of money and space.
Thanks

Hi,
We thought about it as well and I enquired about these units with one of the UK suppliers of BOCA Lemurs, but was informed that getting the double-path printer does not really pay off with usage such as ours through Tessitura. Unfortunately, much as it would be great to print at twice the speed from one batch, I don't think this can currently be done easily.
Also, the supplier actually advised against the dual-path unit, as the price is pretty much the same as 2 separate printers, but you only get one logic board in the device, which means that if it breaks - the whole unit is non-operational. Just a thing to consider, I guess!
