batching files and "open /b"

I'm trying to develop a batch printer for our office.

 

I'm now happy that I have scripts that will print / generate pdfs as I want when I call the script using the following command line:

 

"C:\Program Files\AutoCAD LT 2008\acadlt.exe" /b "C:\testscripts\script.scr"

 

This opens the document declared in the start of the script and then prints it.

 

I would like to then close the document (which I can) and perform the same actions on a second document.

 

However, if I call the above command a second time, a second instance of AutoCAD is opened. I would prefer not to have to exit after each iteration of the script.

 

Any suggestions?

We're trying to create an integrated workflow for issuing all our documents - recording them and creating outgoing copies as part of the same process as recording that they've been sent... :-)
