There are no stuck printers, and I rebooted the server less than 24 hours
ago as well. I've started/stop the Print Spooler as well.
None of the printer mapping names have changed, the problem just came out of
nowhere. It has me boggled.

Printer driver names, spacing, spelling, and capitalization vary with the
various driver revisions. You need to match the driver name on the client
device (case and spacing) to the NT server driver name. It takes some time
to get them all, and HP in their infinite wisdom is constantly adding more.
Another thing to check is stuck printers. If a user is not logged on and you
see their printer in the printers folder on the server, delete it. They will
not have permission to use that printer unless you do, or unless you assign
them permission to do so. Assigning permissions however will stop the
autocreation process for that printer. I check for stuck printers by viewing
details in the printers folder. If I don't see the words "Auto Created
Client Printer...", then I know it is a stuck printer and can be deleted.
