Printing security problem

I have a strange problem on our Windows Server 2003 print server.
The server has a total of about 50 printers connected to it, four of them
being HP Laserjet 1022n, connected via standard TCP/IP ports.
When standard users (non-admin) try to print to these four printers, the
jobs spool fine in the queue, but there is no activity on the printer, and
the jobs get stuck in the queue with the status 'Printing'.
If I restart the spooler service, the jobs in the queue print just fine.
If I print to the same printer from the same computer as the above mentioned
example with the only difference being that it is my user account (domain
admin) that is logged in, everything works just fine.
It makes sense that the jobs print, when I restart the print spooler because
I can see in the event log that when I restart the spooler, the print jobs
are no longer owned by the user that submitted the job, but by the SYSTEM
account which also has adminstrative rights.
All the other printers on the server works just fine.
It doesn't remedy the issue to give standard users full rights to the
printer
I must conclude that this must be som kind of security rights issue since I
as administrator can print without problems and standard users cannot.
Can anyone give a hint to what I should do to remedy this situation
