How about just stop the spooler service while you determine the cause?
You say it is printing to all printers? Does this person have every network
printer installed?

Subject: Haywire printers

When one user logs on to her machine in the morning, it sends print commands
to all the network printers. Reams of paper spew forth from the fastest of
the printers. Just one or two lines of gobbldygook across the top of the
sheet. At the server each printer says it is printing something like an
offline document from her.

Anyone had this happen to them? I am about to limit each printer, I have
about 18, to only those who need it. I looked at the options, it's a Win2K
server, and there wasn't one that I could see to disallow her permission to
print, so it appears I will have to change permissions on all the printers
instead. She is the president's assistant, so I cannot rip her offline and
figure out what is happening from there.

Any ideas?
