[for those who can't see it, the piece of code is this:

wql = """
SELECT * FROM __InstanceCreationEvent WITHIN 2
WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_PrintJob'
"""

ExecNotificationQuery (wql)

]

[... snip horrendous looking COM error dump ...]

In short, I've no idea. Does the machine in question
 definitely have WMI installed? The most recent version
 of the wmi module has slightly prettier error handling,
 but it still wouldn't point to much. Very difficult
 to diagnose at a distance, I'm afraid (and probably
 close up, too).

Any one else got any ideas?
