I have this problem with many of our servers running Windows 2000. The spooler cannot delete from the C:\WINNT\system32\spool\PRINTERS because the attributes are read only, as a result it fills up and eventually no one can print. My question is: why is the .spl is read only, never had this problem until recently. Printers on the domain are HP either 5, 4050, 4100. Anyone else with this problem???
