It just starts working. However I have a small farm, three servers. Only a
few of my users have these laserjets as their defaut printer. I have not
encountered a situation where I deletted the printer and it had adverse
effects on other users.

So while they are logged into a session you delete the auto created LaserJet
4 printer from the server?  Do you have them disconnect and re-login, or
does it just start working when you kill their printer?

I have his happen to a few of my users. It only happens to those who have
autocreated HP LaserJet 4 set as their default printer. I found that if I go
onto the server they are logged into and delete the printer than everything
is ok for a week or two.

My servers are running Win2k SP3 | MF XP SP2 FR2 | Office 2000 SP3:

In the last couple weeks, I have not made any changes to the systems
regarding the OS, Office, or printing.  One of the applications that we use
a lot is TM1 (MS Excel with an Add-in).  Four of my users (out of
~20) are getting the message "No printers installed..." when trying to print
from this app (excel).  If I publish MS Word for them, their printers show
up there (at least most of them)!  This is the only app that I have heard
any complaints about.  Any ideas?  A couple of these users are getting
pretty frustrated, as am I.

Thanks,
Paul
