XP Home, can't print after SP2
Hi,
Thank you in advance for your help. I initially created two users when I installed xp home, user 1 and user 2. user 1 had admin rights and user 2 had limited rights. They were both logged in, so documents and settings directory was created. I created a further four limited users, 3 to 6, but they had not be logged into when I installed SP2. When I try and print from any user 3 to 6, an entry gets placed into the print queue, but does not print. I cannot delete tbe entry either, even with admin rights. I can print just fine from users 1 and 2. I have deleted accounts 3 to 6, and created them again but the problem stil persists. Printer hp 7130 on usb. Thanks Barry |

Here is one thing you can try login as admin go into your services in the
control panel stop the spooler services go into the print que and delete the jobs and restart the spooler services and you should be ok Another thing is the printer set up to allow all users to have full control of the printer you can check this by looking under the properties of the printer under the security settings "BarryW" wrote: Hi, Thank you in advance for your help.
