I'm now having the same problem with one of my clients who is using MS-
Windows XP Home and would appreciate any comments while I continue to
research the issue.

Thanks,
Jeff

Usually seen on XP Home when also using Norton Antivirus Software....
Solution:

Control Panel, Printers & Faxes, right click on the Printer and select
Properties... in the Advanced tab, change Spool Print Documents to Print
directly to Printer.

Thanks, but Norton Antivirus isn't running on this computer. Do you have
another suggestion for this issue?

Thanks,
Jeff

I said 'usually seen'. Has been known with other third party applications
as well. Did you try Printing Direct?

Yes, but that didn't work. I saw it mentioned elsewhere that each user on
XP Home, including "Limited Users" should login with a password and that
this action would create a file somewwhere allowing them access to the
printer. Does this reasonable to you?

I think the problem is that it's on a Print Server.

Try Bruce Sanderson's two articles at:
