Uhm, OK, thanks. So there isn't any way to narrow it down to the specific action of just starting the printer (which is really what I was looking for)? > Though this opens up a whole new can of worms ... Yup. It doesn't really have security issues, since all valid users are trusted, but they can manage to mess things up... Oh well... > However, the real problem is why do they have to restart the printer? It is sort of weird: If for some reason the printer is turned off or is otherwise not responsive, and a printer job is sent (or in progress), the printer will be stopped, and clearing out the problem will not help. Even a reboot won't do it. This is a HP OfficeJet T65, so it is not among the Best Supported Printers[tm], I suppose.
