Most are to jetdirect some are to other printservers (Xerox, Axis...) but it doesn't seem to be to one specific printserver. Thanks for letting me know I'm not the only one.
This is a minor inconvienence and I have a script to enable the disabled printers but I just wanted to fiond out if there was something else I could do to prevent the disable state.
Thank you
