I have a WinXP Pro workstation with an HP LaserJet 6L directly connected. Whatever the last print job the user printed on one day is, prints out for her the next morning when she turns the PC back on.

Very annoying to her, obviously! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. :)
 
FIXED! Thanks! I simply uninstalled and reinstalled the existing driver and then watched the user and she shutdown the system immediately after the printer started printing. So, it turned out that she does this a LOT and WinXP wasn't able to clean up the spool file before the shutdown. Naturally, it reprinted upon startup...She is now waiting about a minute before shutting down her system!
