Odd Network Printer Problem

have a Domain consisting of:

1 - WinNT 4.0 Server system
22 - Win2k Pro systems
2 - WinXP pro systems

1 - HP 2200D printer Ethernet connected to WinXP Pro system
1 - HP 1200 printer USB connected to same WinXP Pro system

The WinNT 4.0 Server prints to a report to the 2200D about every 2 minutes.
If I look at the print manager for the HP200D when it is printing, it shows
that Administrator sent the print job. This is correct

If at any time, I print anything to the HP 1200 printer (from anywhere on
the network) the HP 2200D printer
fails to print it's next job.
Again looking at the print manager for the HP200D, it shows that Anonymous
sent the print job and that there is a printer error. If I cancel the print
job and print again, all is well.

I have never seen this problem before. Any suggestions/Idea's would be
gratefully appreciated.

Thank you,
Bob Hiller
