Hello,

I have an old windows 2003 server that has enough space on other volumes but
the C: drive is running out of space when they run large print jobs. Is
there any way to move that to another volume on the windows 2003 server?


Thanks
 
Re: Move print queue to another volume?

Hello boe,

On the server itself:
1. In Control Panel, double-click Printers and Faxes.
2. On the File menu, click Server Properties, and then click the Advanced
tab.
3. In the Spool Folder box, type the path that you want to use, and then
click OK.

Best regards

Meinolf Weber

Open the "Printers and Faxes" window and go to File > Server
Properties > Advanced.

You may need to restart the spooler service, your results may vary.
