Permissions to Print Spooler service

[Mike D.]

Hi all -

Is it possible to alter permissions on the Print Spooler service? I have a
non-admin user and I want him to be able to cycle the local Print Spooler
service.

For method 3 in the article above:

A new, bug-fixed version of SubInACL.exe is available for download here

SETACL (freeware) at http://setacl.sourceforge.net/ can also set permissions
on local or remote Win32 services.
