Personally I'd move !Boot.Choices.Printers out of the way, set up the
printer definitions again and see if the problem persists. If that
doesn't help then try the following .....
If you set the connection to 'Print to file' in !Printers does printing
and switching off the printer still cause the problem? If not, there is a
PrintSpool trick that might help.
