This Document Failed To Print--But It Does!
I have a Dell 2330dn laser printer that resists any attempt to set it up as a network printer because no matter which driver I use, if I try to print to it as a network printer, it pops up a little, yellow 'This document failed to print' message, and then prints a couple of seconds later. I have a Dell 1720dn printer hooked up to this same network, which never has this problem. I connect to it with a standard TCP/IP port, but neither the standard, nor the open printer driver will work without this error. This error occurs both on Windows XP SP3 machines and off of a Windows 2003 server that is used as an application server. It is extremely annoying to receive this message every time, and to get complaints on it from the other users. I am hoping that someone here will know something that I do not. I thank you in advance for your time and your replies.

I'm guessing that no one has a clue why a this particular laser printer works so badly as a network printer...note to anyone reading this: pick another printer.
