Windows 95 Client Sends Multiple Separator Pages to Windows NT 4.0 Print Server (248703)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0
  • Microsoft Windows 95

This article was previously published under Q248703

SYMPTOMS

When you print from a Microsoft Windows 95-based client computer to a Microsoft Windows NT 4.0-based print server, multiple separator pages may show up in the queue and in the print output, although neither the client nor the server is configured to use extra separator pages.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur when you run McAfee VirusScan 95 version 2.x on the Windows 95-based client.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, upgrade the Windows 95-based client to McAfee VirusScan 95 version 3.0 or later. To work around this behavior, disable use of separator pages on both the client and the print server.
