This actually is worth the $5 for all they put into it. but it's not exactly needed either. Simple Applescripts won't do what this does BUT in case you want a free solution(with limitations) Open script editor and type the following --begin script on open theList --NL repeat with theItem in theList --NL set theJob to POSIX path of theItem --NL do shell script "/usr/bin/lp " & theJob --NL end repeat --NL end open --NL -- end script each --NL means the end of a line and begining of the next line. This will print any # of file dropped on it's icon without opening their respective apps. bt it will only print OS X native file formats this means no Microsoft files. BUT it DOES do most other files including PDF, text docs, images, etc. Be sure to save it as an application never showing starup screen
