I've never had that problem, and we've been using Office 2003 since 2003. Some options:
a) Remove the Document Image Writer from your Office 2003 installation. Be sure to alter the .mst you use to install Office 2003 to not include the Document Image Writer. b) a login script that sets the default printer to any locally attached printer that's not the Office 2003 Document Image Writer - be sure to take into account things like PDF creation software and MS Fax.
