You have two choices: 1) Disable spooling altogether and 2) Changing the
location of your TEMP folder.
1) Click Start, Settings, Printers.
Right-click on the plotter and then click on Properties
Click on the "Details" tab and then press the "Spool Settings" button.
Select "print directly to the printer".
- or -
2) Click Start, run and type in SYSEDIT and click ok
Go to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and look for the line that has SET TEMP=
On my system, I have SET TEMP=F:\TEMP
Make sure you create the folder on the other drive.
Save the changes to AUTOEXEC.BAT and reboot.
I tried moving the SPOOL folder to another drive and Windows didn't appreciate
that. After rebooting, it merely recreated it again on the C: drive where
Windows is installed. However, the bulk of the spooling data, I believe, goes
into the TEMP folder.
Hope this helps.
