	Guide to Printers and Printing - Printers, Print Jobs, and Queues for System Administrators
		A print job can be sent to a printer attached directly to a local system, or it can be sent over a network to a remote system and printed on a printer attached to the remote system.
		The spooler is not specifically a print job spooler but a generic spooling function that can be used for queuing various types of jobs, including print jobs queued to a printer.
		A print request issued by one of these commands is passed to the enq program that places the information about the file in the queue for the qdaemon to process.

	Print Spooler Support on Microsoft Windows 2000 Server Cluster
		This is because all printer drivers expect to install to the print$ folder, and you cannot have more than one share on a computer with the same name to balance the print spooler activity among the cluster nodes.
		The node uses the driver to print to the print device and clients printing to the printer on the virtual server install print drivers from the print$ folder from the node controlling the spooler resource.
		The print share name must be a unique share name on the virtual server and on each node in the cluster.

	WindowsDevCenter.com: Troubleshooting Printer Problems
		As a result, being able to quickly troubleshoot printing problems is an essential skill if administrators are to keep their users happy, or at least placated.
		Printing problems basically have four possible sources, and a big part of the art of printer troubleshooting involves narrowing down those choices until the guilty culprit is found.
		At the conclusion of a previous article, Upgrading and Migrating Print Servers, I mention how administrators can use Print Migrator, a free tool from Microsoft, to save the configuration of their printers for easy recovery when a disaster occurs.

		If the print job is located on a remote print server, you must give the name of the local print queue (in addition to the print job number) to cancel it.
		If including the status of print queues on remote servers is not selected, the output will still include a line for the local queue that is directed to the remote server, but will not include a line showing the status of the destination queue on the remote server.
		Print files are sent to the server without modification, with the assumption that any necessary filtering of the print files will be performed by the server before sending the files to the printer.

	Print Services Configuration
		When you use the default syntax, the AppleTalk print spooler name is derived by preceding the printer name with "NW," and a valid queue name is derived as usual from the AppleTalk print spooler name.
		The AppleTalk print spooler will be visible in the Chooser as "Tim's Queue," and the queue will be named "TIM_S_QUEUE." Because a zone name is not specified, the printer must reside in the same zone configured as the default zone of the internal network.
		The name of a queue used by ATPS is derived from the spooler name by converting special characters and spaces in the spooler name to underscore characters, and converting uppercase and lowercase characters to all uppercase.

		To run a print spooler on the Cluster Server computer, a printer port monitor must be established from each node of the Cluster server to the remote printer or remote print server.
		Clients are able to send print jobs to the Cluster server, but the server does not have the appropriate resources on the failover node to process the job out of the logically defined printer.
		For example, a clustered Spooler was set up to have 50 logical printers on it all using the same printer driver (for example, HP LaserJet 4).

		The spooler is loaded when the operating system starts, and it continues to run until the operating system is shut down.
		The Print Spooler service manages the printing process, which includes such tasks as retrieving the location of the correct printer driver, loading that driver, spooling high-level function calls into a print job, and scheduling print jobs.
		When the tasks for a particular print job are complete, the Print Spooler service passes the job to the print router.

	Print Spooler Stops Scheduling Print Jobs
		Although incoming jobs are queuing into the spooler, print jobs may not start.
		For example, if a particular port stops scheduling jobs, it is possible to create a new port to the same device and to switch the hanging print queue to this new port.
		When you stop and start the Print Spooler service, jobs are scheduled on ports that have stopped responding (hung ports).
