Hi, We’ve just come across an odd printing issue. Windows 2003 AD domain with a number of network printers attached to some of the file and print servers in the array. One particular file repository contains a number of PDF documents that were previously printing ok,however, yesterday when a user attempted to print one of the PDF’s the print job did not spool on the server and a file was created in the directory in which the “To be printed document” resides. The file has no extension and the file name is the IP address of the printer to which the print job was sent.
1)I thought it might be a right’s issue but that doesn’t appear to be the case.
2)The printer isn’t defaulting to “Print to file”
like I say, printing any docs from this directory was ok until yesterday and no changes were made in the win32 environment that might have a knock on effect.
Anyone come across this? cheers in advance
