"It seems a good part of my workday is spent clicking the various print windows over and over. Surely there must be a program or macro to simplify this task. I have tried a few programs, Autohotkey, (seemed to be a little to advanced for me), and a couple others but so far no luck."

AlomWare Toolbox solution: The app was made for this! Unlike AutoHotkey's horrible and unfriendly text-based coding, just start AlomWare Toolbox's macro recorder by clicking the "Action Wizard" button in the "Automation" tab, and choose "Record keys/mouse > Keystrokes and mouse clicks only". A message is shown and recording starts one second after you close it.

The user above would then click the various window points desired, and when done, press the Ctrl key three times to stop recording. This macro can then be assigned to a hotkey trigger to play back the mouse clicks when needed, thus solving the user's repetitive task. :)
