I am supporting a Windows 2000 cluster with SP4. I have noticed that we are seeing several of these printing errors in the Logs. The logs are reporting 0 - 50 of these errors a day. The vast majority of them are being recorded as event ID 61. We do have a very high volume of printing... We have around 1400 users and 180 network printers. The specific errors are as follows:

Win32 error code returned by the print processor: 8 (0X8)
Win32 error code returned by the print processor: 3003 (0xbbb)
Win32 error code returned by the print processor: 259 (0x103)
Win32 error code returned by the print processor: 0 (0x0)
Win32 error code returned by the print processor: 50 (0X32)

What do these error codes mean and do I need to be concerned.
