RE: Ahhh printing



It's a custom application (Advantage SQL backend, Delphi frontend) that a
developer writes for a couple of companies in our area. Defintely not
anything you would of heard of. The actual print devices are HP LJ 4000
series (4050, 4100, 4200, 4250). I was told that all 4000 series drivers are
derived from the LJ 4, which works better with TS and ICA sessions. Also, I
wanted your advice on how the printers are setup. I'm not using a 2003 Server
as a print server, I just setup TCP/IP ports to print directly to the device.
This only happens on occasions, it would just be nice if I could get the
print spooler service to restart itself after the first job jams.
