Thanks--I did see that on another posting, but opening that log file takes me to the Printservice admin log, which is one of the logs I'm already looking at. Informational print events are not showing up there, and I don't see a way to add them.
I've even loaded up a tcp/ip printer outside of the cluster just on WS08 R2 and am seeing the same thing--no events appear in the logs for informational printing. -----Original Message----- From: Tod Qaz [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 08, 2010 10:38 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Print events Printer events are stored in C:\Windows\System32\winevt\Logs\Microsoft-Windows-PrintService%4Admi.evtx On 4/8/10, Miller Bonnie L. <[email protected]> wrote: > Building our first WS08 R2 print server, 2-node failover cluster.
