Windows Server 2008R2 Print Management Question


we have windows server 2008 r2 print server , boss , cannot figure out how restart spooler 1 printer.  it not feasible restart entire print spooler bringing down our printers because of 1 printer hung up.  we tried putting drivers isolated mode, cannot find option allow reset 1 printer.

does have idea?  

if not option on windows 2008, shame on microsoft.

you can't. print spooler need restarted. issue behing caused bad driver usually.

does printer host based way ? (thus explain why got problem it)

be warned sometime host-based printer have nic card, not make them more sharable on print server.

in last attempt, if it's hostbased put hp laserjet4 driver on it. it's pretty standard everything.

unfortunately, printer drivers these printers designed
communicate , forth printer-they can't take stream of data
from pc or print server without communicating between printer ,
driver. if bi-directional communication required printer driver
work, cannot networked. printers double fax machines
have restriction. these printers not designed use on networks
many of them can finessed working external print server.
