Hi,

I'm trying to enable the Printer Sharing option in Sharing and Discovery on my Windows server 2008.
When I click on Turn on Printer sharing, nothing happens and it stays off.

The only printer listed on this server is a network one.
There's no printer physically connected to my server.

The only error message I get (in the System log) is: The print spooler failed to share printer LX69 with shared resource name LX69_test. Error 1740. The printer cannot be used by others on the network.

Thanks.
Eric
