+# Clear Printer Spooler
+
+You can run this script anyware on the system but make sure there is a D drive. This batch will:
+
+1. Create the directory `D:\Applications\ClearPrinterSpooler` if it doesn't exist
+1. Create the `ClearPrinterSpooler.bat` file in that directory
+1. Delete the task `\ImagePlus\ClearPrinterSpoolerTask` if it exists
+1. Create a task that calls the `ClearPrinterSpooler.bat` at 4:00
