Has anyone run into the user session getting DE-activated by windows when spooling out MANY prints to a printer. I mean hundreds of print jobs being created as fast as the printer can take them! Am I supposed to wait for some event between prints? This is a new client reports printing routine that changes printer trays, orientation, duplexing, etc. often so as to "bind" together multiple PDF's from different sources into an orderly stack on the printer. ALL THIS WORKS FINE but windows is thowing errors and locking the accoutn out after some unknow number of print jobs hit the spool. This post is just asking for a direction to start looking. I can gladly supply more info if anyone intertested. Thanks in advance for any replies - guidance!

Your DLL and the demo app were VERY useful. Thank you. It helped me show that it was the Fiery Controller in the printer and not the program that was throwing the errors incorrectly! Thank you. I consider the thread closed unless anyone wants to reply.
