Print Drivers frequently updating

[Guest Mark Puchalski]

Running Win2k3/SP1 print servers. Printers are installed on XP/SP2

workstations.

 

Lately the workstations have started getting many event ID 20 events from

the Print source. Looks like drivers are frequently updating, even though

there are no changes being made server-side.

 

We have also started to see some corruption on some workstations for Dell

color printers using PostScript drivers, and I'm wondering if the corruption

is being caused by the drivers continually downloading.

 

Any ideas why the drivers keep pushing down from the server?

Hi Mark,

 

Have you looked here yet..

http://www.eventid.net/display.asp?eventid=20&eventno=42&source=Print&phase=1 ?

These describe some solutions other people have had with issues sounding

similar to yours (event id 20).

 

If you still have this issue after trying those suggestions let us know.
