I have a user who claims her machine is printing by it's self. 500 pages over night and the Q had atleast 1000 pages waiting? I see nothing on the web or Microsoft about such an issue. Anyone heard of this? Hate to say she's full of it, but........
 
I have seen this issue when the printer is shared and one has a virus on
another machine on the network. The virus just copies infected binaries to
shares file or print. The job names are usually "remote downlevel" and
since they are binary, what comes out of the printer is junk.
