You are probably running NPrinter or Nprinter95 on the workstations that the printers are attached to (maybe not if you have a dedicated print server). Anyway, I found that on Windows95 stations, the banner is part of the network printer setup routine, also Nprinter has some banner control. Both of these are overridden with queue capture commands. Also, I notice that you are running your "\" with no space preceding it in your spooler command (e.g. '\\SPOOLER\NB' rather than '\\SPOOLER \NB'). The syntax may be correct but I always remember using a space. It's been a while though. You might want to check that.

HTH,
