Network printer page on boot?

Two 98se systems on peer to peer. Lex' printer using HP4 driver...long story. Unit prints one page without user interaction with 3 hearts on the top left, only happens on boot. Then its fine...works great any other time.
Nothing else odd.

In the process of removing modemshare ...and have removed lantastic 7.0...have just upgraded from 95B to 98SE.

I am hoping I do NOT have to remove and reinstall printers to correct this. It will take me ages to reconfigure the software apps, as they are mapped internally to the printer as it sits and will lose the settings if I delete them.

HELP?

All fixed....remnants of a program that was used with Lantastic were causing the errors....it was called modemshare.

After I removed the references...the error stopped.
Thought I would post in case this helps someone else.

Have a great day! Kimber

OK...pulling my hair out.
Problem has reoccured on one of the printers.
The page prints immediately after boot, before login to the network even occurs.
I have looked in MSCONFIG but I am not finding any answers.
Back to searching the Lex documentation and crossing my fingers that someone out there has run into this before.
Thanks ahead for any insight.
