Where is printer spool data going and why?
Hi,
I am debugging an issue for my product and it is important to me where the printer spool data is going. All my machines are Windows 7. When i give a print for a particular printer from one Windows 7 machine, the spool data goes to C:\windows\system32\spool\printers. On another Windows 7 machine the spool data goes to c:\windows \system32\spool\servers\abcprint Here "abcprint" is the name of the server i believe. Another thing to note is that procmon traces show that the data going into the spool\printers directory is something of the form SPL49FE.tmp. Where as the one going into the spool\servers directory is of the form 00025.SPL. BottomLine: I want to know why the data goes to spool\printers in some cases and spool\servers\servername in others even though the printer is the same and i configure the printer from the same location. Thanks for any help. Regards. |
