Getting a "Document Has Been Sent to Printer.." Message

[spacejamz]

Ever since they finally installed SP2 on our XP PRO desktops at work, we get a message stating our document was sent to printer XXXX after everthing we print. This gets to be pretty annoying.

Our tech guy hasn't had time to look into this since it is a 'minor' issue...

I would assume that the setting to turn this off would be under the 'NOTIFY THE WAY SECURITY CENTER ALERTS ME' link in the Security Center, but since I don't have admin rights, I can't check...

can someone verify this for me? TIA....

Hmm, no Admin rights means you won't be able to turn off the messenger service, which is usually the quickest way to stop these. There should also be a setting in the printer driver to stop it as well.

You may need admin rights to change this setting. I'm not sure since I never tried it with a non-admin account. Go to Start > Printers and choose File > Server Properties. Click the Advanced tab and turn off the notifications there.
