Windows XP Home Edition
When printing to an HP2210 from and ADMIN class account
all is well. Demote a user to Limited for security
purposes. (IE kids stay out of Dad's stuff) The Limited
user sees the printer status (queue) window and sees
their job drop in. It immediately dissapears as if
printed. Sadly the printer doesn't seem to have seen a
thing. This is a USB printer by the way.

A look at the EventViewer shows:
Source: Print EventID: 61
Win32 error code 5 (0x5)

Anybody have a clue?

Does some spool directory or hardware registry entry have
to be made public or some such thing.
Can't find any info on it by error number.

Printer will not print from Limited Accounts. (update)

Update:
The breakdown appears to be between the spooler and the
rendering engine (hpeng07.exe). In the failed situation
the rendering doesn't start. IN the working mode (admin)
it kicks off and runs for a bit and then the page pumps
out.

Anyone got a clue as to why this would be the case?

Note - disable spooling and we work fine but painfully
slow.
