Support for sharing multiple printers in one server instance

[ajihandoko]

Hi 👋
First of all, thank you for creating PrinterOne — it’s very helpful and simple to use.

I would like to ask and clarify about support for sharing more than one printer.

From the current documentation and config.json, it seems that PrinterOne is designed to handle only one printer per instance, for example:

{
"printer_name": "Canon MF220 Series",
"port": 9100
}

My questions:

1. Does PrinterOne currently support multiple printers in a single server instance?

2. If not, is the recommended approach to run multiple PrinterOne instances, each with:

• a different printer_name

• a different TCP port?

3. Are there any plans or roadmap to support:

• multiple printer definitions in one config file, or

• printer selection/routing based on port or request?

Use case:

One server needs to share multiple printers (e.g. receipt printer, report printer, label printer).

Different applications or devices need to print to different printers from the same host.

I’d appreciate any clarification or suggestion for the best practice.
Thanks again for the great project! 🙏
