Yes the disk is NTFS. I tried to figure out how to set the
permissions on the spool directory. I am an NT/Wn2K admin,
but XP Home makes me nuts...

Here is what I know...
my account is a member of administrators group
all other users are members of the users group

I cant find any play to administer groups or set
permisions on the directories.

I tried moving the spool dir to the shared docs folder
since I know that all users have access to this folder.
All this did was make it so the aministrator could not
print....

Got mad... rebuilt system from ghost image restore disks...

Same problem....

Changed one user to administrator type from limited...
like magic they can print!

So this is definately a premission problem either on the
printer or on the ntfs folder.

Soooooo .... how the heck do i change the permissions?????

thankssssssss
