This post will show you how to change print spooler directory path in your Windows system.

It is recommended to relocate print spooler directory to dedicated disk or disk array (Raid 0) in your Print server. This will increase printing performance considerably.

By default print spooler directory is located in %systemroot%\System32\Spool\Printers on your Windows computer.

To change path click Start>Settings>Printers and Faxes.

Press “File” in menu and select “Server Properties”.

Select “Advanced” tab.

Type new path for spool folder in “Spool folder:” field.

Note that new path for spool folder cannot be root of disk (for example G:) and target path must exist before relocating spool folder.
