Print to File

I have a Windows 2003 print server that prints hundreds of documents per day to one printer.

Is it possible to set up a "Print to File" where the document would print the file to a directory mapped to another server. I would also need the file name to increment for each file so that it would not overwrite.

For example, I need to send from ServerP to \\ServerA\Share$\ and be named file0001, file0002, file0003, etc...

edited to add: This must be done without user intervention as the printing of the documents is an automatic process.

Thanks!

Or just send everything to PDF?

Are you trying to make all output files or making an archive of all print output?

I have a system that currently gets these print jobs, but I need to simplify the process. The receiving system will take a PDF, and I upload from other systems through PDF with a 3rd party application that resides on the print server, but I'm trying to look at all of my options.
