4.2 Printer Spooler Question

We would like to hook up a HP laser jet printer to the spooler in
a special way. I would like to create two queues, by two different
names, with different spool directories and different output
filters. All this works fine, but if you enable printing on both
at once you get multiplexed output!! Is there anyway to set this
up, so that the device is shared properly and output files don't
get stepped on. Today we must stop printing on one queue to start
the other.
In case you're curious, we use one output filter for 66x127
landscape format output and another for 66x80 portrait format
output.
