      Is there a way to force InDesign to print a specific spot plate first, so that the order is SpecificSpot+cmyk?

      We frequently print separations (default order is cmyk+spot) to an office printer as part of our QC and communication steps. By frequently, I mean numerous times daily.
      Often, one of the spot colors represents content that will inkjet onto a preprinted base, and for many in the QC process this inkjet spot plate is the most important, therefore we always manually pull the sheet and place it top of the separations prints.

      Your thoughts?

      Brainstorms:
      * Ink manager changes that result in different order (but I think cmyk always prints first)
      * Scripting a command that essentially prints only the desired spot plate then repeats with only the other plates
