Hi,
If I understand the question, two users are logging on under the same
username, right? If that is the case, then the user who logs in first will
receive all of the print notifications, whether or not that user initiated
the print job. To avoid the problem, have the users log on under different
usernames. Otherwise, you will have to live with it as it is not
technically an error.
