Hi Aamir,

try the SPLViewer. It is completely free.

Windows store the spool files (a spl and a shd file for each job) in the
folder %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\spool\PRINTERS

The default folder can be changed
(Print Server properties or key registry entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers\DefaultSpoolDirectory

It is possible to configurate seperate spool folders for each printer:
e.g.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers\TestAll\SpoolDirectory

The default is empty which signals to use the default spool folder.
