We have observed that windows clients running an installation of the OpenAFS client version 1.7.201 and later will, unknown to the user, print garbage on all our printers. Every time a user opens/refreshes the Samba share exporting the printers, each available printer will print 2 pages each containing a single line of output:

,\ ☺☺

In case the above UTF-8 does not survive the mail system:

<komma><backslash><space><smileyface><smileyface>

Just viewing the share exporting the printers will trigger this.

We only see this when the OpenAFS Client Service is running and only after version 1.7.201. It even happens when the windows Print Spooler service is stopped but AFS is running.

Has anybody else seen this or have an explanation?

Should I file a bug report on this?
