Running windows xp pro.
i was trying to print a file through the network on a local printer of another PC on the same network. It gives me an error when i open the printer (printers and faxes). If i leave the error message and reboot windows it will print when it starts up again, it doesnt print before the restart.
i checked the error id o nmicrosoft and its not too descriptive:

"RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, provide a specific destination when you create a local file as the destination of a local port print job. Do not use the system folders. "

If anyone can help me please reply to this. This is for a company that needs to print receipts constantly.

Also, it prints from the local PC, but it doesnt print from the others in the network. i havent tried anything on it yet, but i will need to fix it by tomorrow. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

I have verified and found out that these arent the problems:
-user rights on the printer itself
-cmd "start spool"
-reinstalled drivers
