Installed printer on WHS with 2003 drivers, it shared automatically, clients created printer automatically, send test print and a need to restart the spooler on WHS before it prints?

Whats up with that?...WT?

Edit - the server is currently doing a backup, do you think its too busy?

edit #2 - just noticed NIC usage @ almost 100% - only 100MB router

Solution to stalled print jobs on WHS :

1. Login to your WHS via Remote Desktop
2. Start / Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Services
3. Find the “Print Spooler” service, double-click to view properties
4. Select the “Log On” Tab
5. UNCHECK “Allow service to interact with desktop”
6. Click OK
7. Restart the service
