We are running a vfp com object to generate labels on a W2003 server. The server also has Citrix running. On this server we have Seagull printer drivers that are printing towards Zebra printers.

Almost daily the prints come out up side down. The only way to fix this is to restart the print spooler on the server.
To get this problem under control I want to do the following on an hourly basis:
- check if any print queue has any print jobs (not only label printer queue's are present on the server, also to normal printers)
- if not, restart the print spooler

The first I know how to do. The second, however, is something I need help on. What is the easiest way to do this (vbs, dotnet, vfp)?
