Hi, can anyone help and give me a definitive answer.

Problem:
Limited users cannot print from any program, yet admin users can. Is it
attributed to me upgrading to ntfs as some postings hint but never seem to
answer

many thanks (as son is now eating pieces of carpet as his account DID print
but DOESN'T NOW!!) so no hurry...

Make sure the Everyone group has write access to
\windows\system32\spool\printers.


If the driver is attempting to write files to another location, you would
need to contact the vendor and ask where the driver stores temp files.

Thanks Alan for the response. I'll try it out tonight after i've rescued the
rest of the lounge furnishings from being started on...wouldn't mind but we
don't even have a cat to blame..

Would other problems of this nature be related to security permissions. And
were they permission restriction imposed as part of the conversion from FAT32
to NTFS?
