Print Spooler is preventing hibernation

#1 Post by fasterbybike » Mon Aug 25, 2008 7:41 am

As per title.

Since I've reinstalled Windows, I can no longer suspend or hibernate my machine if there is a job in the print spooler.

This is a real pain. Often if I was not attached to my office network, but needed to print a document, I'd let the print spooler queue the print job. Then I could hibernate the laptop and next time I was back in the office the print spooler would reconnect to the physical printer and automagically start the print job.

Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
