Re: high memory usage of Spoolsv.exe
i would like to take that as an cause to this problem as well.
I have an example here, HP laserjet 1020, i've installed the latest driver
in the server. However, the deletion of redirected printer works for certain
desktop only. Althoug i've patched up those desktop, use RDP 6.0, it still
can't delete off the redirected printer when they log off.
I have tried to reinstall each and every printer driver in the server.
I would said that, the problem would occur during when the user log in in
the morning and when the user need to print out a lot of document.
Shall i consider take out the number of user logging into the server ??
Currently, there are 200 users logging into this terminal server.
