Network Printing issue .. please help.

[yO ..]

Ok this is a Windows2000 Active Directory environment.

I have a color printer (hosted by a w2k server domain controller) on my
network that all client w2k workstations are only able to print a single
page at a time. Meaning If its a 5 page document I can see the server spool
all pages but the printer only prints out 1.

I've tried everything with no luck. If I grant the user domain admin rights
the entire print job DOES complete!!.. obvisouly we cant leave that in place
...
I've gone to the printer security properties and set "everyone" to full
rights .. also no luck.

Anyone have any ideas.

I've applied sp4 to both the server and the workstations.
I've installed and reinstalled the drivers.
Its a HP DeskJet 5800 using its onboard Ethernet .. tcp/ip..

Please someone put me out of my misery.

Silly question but you have looked at Q163551 and Q260142 ?

Evan ... those were interesting articles. But none of them really have
sollutions to my problems. My problem is very specific.
