Jim,
We had that problem for a while with a FPW 2.6 app under NT. In our case it was printer dependant (a QMS printer), but I suspect it may have something to do with the interaction of the print spools...Workstation/Server/Printer based. It could be that the printer send a message, when it's memory is full, which NT interprets as a failed print job...and then NT defaults to restarting the job.

We had to switch printers. :-(
Our new HP printers are working great. :-)

Kind of a mixed blessing.

HTH,
Rick

The report prints part way through, 20 or more pages, and then suddenly stops and starts over again from page one. Then they say, ‘oh by the way I’ve switched to NT.’
