I am installing an Epson printer on a friends PC. His C drive is
fairly full but he has bags of space on his D drive. How can I change
the location of where print jobs spool?

TIA


cheers,
Len

Click to expand...

The following article contains a link to one about moving the Spool
location.
I believe it is still valid for Windows XP (see the information on Windows
NT 4.0 and Windows 2000)

Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 and Windows XP
1.. In Control Panel, double-click Printers.
2.. On the File menu, click Server Properties, and then click the Advanced
tab.
3.. Type the path you want to use in the Spool Folder box, and then click
OK.
