We have a DeskJet 6980 setup on a network that has been printing fine. Problem is, the server it is shared on is going away.

So I re-created it exactly the same on a new print server. Oddly enough, when I printed a test page, it just continues to print the same page over and over again. I tried printing another document, and it does the same thing. If you watch the print monitor, it says "restarting" next to it every few seconds, so it just keeps going and going.

I reinstalled the drivers. I also deleted and recreated the printer. It still does the same thing. But if I print using the queue from the old server that is going away.... It only prints the job once.

Any ideas?
