Spool32 error

Comment:
The majority of the times that printing is attempted on my Win95 workstation, a Spool32 error occurs, somtime Printers folder error. This is in from a Paradox application to a Xerox Mopier printer. It's a Win95 workstation on a Novell 4.1 network. Any ideas?

Update to OSR2.5???? You mean wipe out the OS and completely reinstall? There has to be a better solution than that.... I'm getting the same problem with an HP LJ5siNx on a Novell 4.11 network. The problem occurs on several Win95 workstations, all running OSR2 (not sure which version of OSR2 or how to check). I'm thinking it has something to do with user rights and where the print que is located on the server, or possibly a conflict between the Novell client software (We're using the intranetware client V3.1.0.0 SP1) and I know there's a SP2 version out now. If anyone is interested in whether the upgrade solves the problem, send me a note next week..... If anyone has a better solution to the problem, PLEASE send me a note asap!

I have a spool32 error when I start printing on an Epson EPL 5700, but I know that it's linked to the McAFFEE Anti-VIRUS because when I disactivate it, the problem disappears ! On the other hand, I do not know what to do to keep using both the printer and the anti-virus ? Could you help me ? Thank you before hand.

Are you scanning all files for viruses or just program files, I recently changed the options from program files to all files with Norton Antivirus and started to have the problem....not sure if it is NAV or not.
Summary: Just about everytime on the first bootup, network printers do not load. If you open printers folder there are no printers listed. If you try to add a pr...
