W2k server: Local admin has no rights to spooler?

Hi,
We have a win2k sp4 server running a form processing app which takes
Unix plain-text print jobs, pretties them up then outputs them to
windows printer queues. The app has to have the machine logged in as a
local administrator all the time. However, earlier today the app had
stopped working. This was because the local admin account seems to
have lost all rights to the print spooler service. Whenever a print job
appears, the service crashes with an error 7031. All start/stop
options for the service are greyed out, and if you try to look at the
properties you get "Error 5: access is denied".
If I log in as another admin, the service is ok and the app works, but
I'd rather fix whatever's broken with the local admin account! Anyone
have any ideas?
TIA,
Ross
