C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS\*.SHD - skipped.

During a daily backup job, the files C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS\*.SHD are unable to be opened and are skipped. This cause the job to end in a warning state. Are the files in C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS\ (or perhaps just the *.SHD) files temporary files and safe to exclude from the backup job so that the jobs do not get these warnings?
