print spooler frozen

G

Guest

When trying to print from our application to a network lexmark laser printer
on a w2k pro box the spooler freezes, and the logical printer says "out of
paper", but the printer has lots of paper. Windows gives the error below, and
after we stop and start the print spooler all the print jobs print out ok.
This happens about once a week.

"The document Rx Label owned by Administrator failed to print. Win32 error
code returned by the print processor: 259 (0x103)."

Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi Propharm:

Those kind of problems with the Lexmark printers refer to software
corruption (installation software of the printer). I recommend you to look
for the latest driver from the Lexmark website and reinstall the printer
where you have it originally (ex. 2000 Server). I hope this solves your
problem.

We have already tried that, with no success. I did an internet search, and I
see some people are having this problem and are on service pack 3, I wonder
if I should upgrade the service pack 3 to 4?

Thanks

Hello Propharm,

Based on the symptoms, it seems there are some corruptons about printer
spool temp folder, I suggest that you try the following steps:

1. Stop spooler service

2. Remove the files in the following folder

%windir%\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\PRINTERS

3. Start spooler service to test

If the issue persists, you may want to contact Lexmark on this issue to see
if there is any updated driver to fix this problem.
