TASK SCHEDULER
SOLIDWORKS Task Scheduler allows you set up tasks to perform at a later time. Performing a resource-intensive task such as rebuilding a large assembly could be time-consuming, you can use SOLIDWORKS Task Scheduler to perform the job after office hours. You can choose to schedule a task on a daily basis or quarterly, depending on your workflow. SOLIDWORKS Task Scheduler runs on detached window interface that is different from the SOLIDWORKS application.
You will need a SOLIDWORKS Professional, SOLIDWORKS Premium, or SOLIDWORKS Office license to fully utilize SOLIDWORKS Task Scheduler.

SOLIDWORKS Task Scheduler step-up
Print Step-up
Since I just started to use Print Files from SOLIDWORKS Task Scheduler, I realised the printer step up is important. I have to have the correct printer driver that is installed on my workstation in order for this task to work. To change the settings of the printer, from the SOLIDWORKS Task Scheduler step-up and clicking on the options will allow customizing.
From this print step-up, I am able to customize the drawing settings (for example, the background of the SOLIDWORKS drawings or even the size of the paper).
