If I can be nosey...

Why aren't you exluding the print queues from backup?  Why spend tape
backing up transitory stuff like this?

This could happen if you have print jobs that got queued and processed while
the backup ran. We see these all the time, especially on our distributed
printer severs that service the whole lab.

I hope that helps.
