Sounds like you have changed the permission on the folder where the spool
documents are stored, and they cannot delete from that folder.
Ensure that CREATOR/OWNER and SYSTEM have full control.
My spool folder is at C:\WINNT\System32\spool\printers, but your may be
different. In the printers control panel, click File->Server Properties,
and look at the path on the advanced tab...

Its been a while, but I need to revisit this. I have set this up as you
recommended, but now I'm having some strange problems. Whenever I turn on
one of the machines that this is set up on I get a complete print out of
everything that was printed the day before. The queue is not purging itself
so to speak. Is there a setting I'm missing?

Only local printers will show for all users.
But you can make network printers pseudo-local:
In the add printer wizard, choose "Local Printer (Do not detect)" and when
asked for a port, choose "New Local Port"
When prompted for the local port name, put the UNC of the network printer
queue.
Hope this helps,

I have a question in regard to individual users and printers. I'm sure this
is by design, but when I install a printer, it only appears for the user who
is logged in at the time. Next user, install printer.....next user -
install printer.....
What do I have to do to install a printer and have it appear for ALL the
users of that perticular machine. Some pc's will have 10 different users
per day.
