Unable to print to shared network printer from local account if not logged in

[lravelo]

So I have this application that has to run within the context of the local administrator user (this can't change, unfortunately) and it generates documents to print. When the local administrator is not logged in, the print job runs according to my audit logs but doesn't generate a PDF at all. When I do log in with the local admin account and new print jobs are triggered, the pdf's do get created and my post actions run as I want them. Is there any way to get this to run without having the local admin needing to be logged in?
