Changing the spool directory

By default, Windows uses the folder %SystemRoot%\System32\spool\PRINTERS to store spooled jobs. On our print server, PSRV, this folder is C:\Windows\System32\spool\PRINTERS. In some cases, particularly when your users generate large amounts of printed output, this folder and the volume could become full, which is not a good thing. To help you avoid issues, you can move the default spool directory to a different folder (for example, C:\Spool), or you could move the spool folder to a folder on another volume (for example, E:\Spool).
