 * 1) Click Start, and then click Printers and Faxes.
 * 2) Right-click your installed printer, and then click Properties.
 * 3) On the Advanced tab, click to select the Available from check box, and then enter the time when you want the printer to start to be available in the Start box. Enter the time that you want the printer to end being available in the End box.
