Stange printer problem with an HP4350TN printer

[jmconsulting]

I installed an HP 4350TN on a network with a combo of XP Pro and 2k workstations. I have one 2k machine that has an oddity of rerprinting all the documents that have been sent to the print queue since the installation of the printer (which I might add has been several months ago). The machine has been rebooted but there seems to be no rhyme or reason to when the PC will redump it's print queue.

Has anybody seen this before?

Go into properties of the printer, on the Advanced tab ensure that "Keep Printed Documents" is not ticked. This is (as far as I know) the only way that jobs submitted to a printer will not be automatically deleted upon successful completion.

It doesn't explain about when it reprints the items though.

I am thinking that it has something to do with autority to execute a function during log off. The user was set up on a domain as a domain user, but when they got set up on the local 2k box, they were set as restricted. I changed the security on the local box, and when they log off at days end, sometime during the evening (?) they reprint. When the users come in next day, printer is usually out of paper.
