Print jobs reprint on start up

Posted: 10-10-2006, 03:38 PM
Every time I power up my pc all print job's that were printed since the last
time i restarted my pc print again. It makes no difference what printer i
used it will reprint everything to all the different printers i use. local
printers network printers they all start printing when i turn my pc on. I
have tried deleting all printers and drivers and reinsalling them and they
still reprint.
I found the following on the ms website, it is the closest thing to my
problem that i can find.

Problem #3: Spooler Retries Old Print Job
Description of Problem
When you send a print job to a printer, the print spooler might not delete
the spool file from the %SystemRoot%\System32\Spool\Printers folder when the
print job is completed, and the print spooler might repeatedly attempt to
spool the print job.

Resolution of Problem

• To prevent this behavior from occurring, do not change the attributes of a
spool file while it is in the %SystemRoot%\System32\ Spool\Printers folder.

• To work around this behavior, remove the read-only attribute and then
delete the spool file from the %SystemRoot%\System32\ Spool\Printers folder.

**I need to figure out how to get this auto delete feature working on a
regular basis
