spoolsv.exe

[Rob]

Everyday we were rebooting the print server cause no one
could print. We found in Taskmgr. that spoolsv.exe was up
using up to 768,000kb of memory. Once we killed the
process after a few minutes would come back up. But it
grows and grows until it's too large. Anyone have any
ideas as to what or why this happens?

thanks for you help.

I have seen this with some print drivers leaking resources.
