Event 812 the print spooler failed to delete the file

I am running on a Windows Server R2 Standard, version 6. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks, Doug. Friday, January 10, PM. Just curious, What is the error code? So you are able to print fine but the spool files are not getting deleted in time?

Also try updating the spooler components to check if it makes any difference Winspool. Monday, January 13, AM. Hi, Any update? Error code is 0x2. Monday, January 13, PM. I had our server guy install those updates and reboot. We are still seeing the code 0x2 errors in the event log. It is completely safe to ignore.

This event, found in the Operational log, occurs when the print job was canceled by the user or by another application other than PaperCut. Let us know!
