Hello from Spain.

In my TS Server, the event viewer is full of printing events, most of them
simple information events. How can I disable the logging of this events? Now
and then, a message appears in server console telling that the event viewer
is full. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance, and sorry for my terrible english.

Go into your printer folder and click on the file menu,
and then click on server properties. On the advanced tab,
there should be options to enable or disable logging
errors or warnings from the spooler service. Just disable
those logging options and you should be just fine.

Also, as far as the event viewer goes, check out this link:

support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;320121&Product=win2000

your best bet is to set each eventlog to overwrite itself
if it gets too full, but to set each eventlog to be around
16MB, so what it can store a ton of data before having to
overwrite some critical piece of information.

Have you tried this:

My Computer - Printers - File menu - Server properties - Advanced -
clear the checkbox for "Log informational events"
(exact phrasing might by slightly different, I'm on a Swedish system
at the moment).
