Hey all,
I've got a problem. I am using Win XP Pro and the print spooler service quits all the time! The event log won't tell me what is wrong. What can I do? I have the printers mapped from the network and it works on all the other network computers (also win xp) i would apprecieate the help.


Thanx in advance,
Michael

I remember running across this same problem. It was quite a while ago. I believe that there were two printers attached to this computer and the two drivers were conflicting causing the service to stop. Once the other printer was removed, it worked just fine. If there is another printer attached, it could be conflicting with the network printer.

Hope this helps.
