The printers on my W2K adv server disappeared. When I tried to add a printer it said I was out of resources. What's going on?

thanks
 
This can happen Installing old or outdated drivers.. Plus it's a good ideal to reboot after installing printers on 2000 machines. This was told to me by a MS tec. I found it works for the most part after installing network printers.
 
Thanks, the problem did seemed solved after re-booting. What concerned me is that this is a new, very powerful server. I become more concerned if the problem re-appears. Thanks for your input!

If it happens again, you will probably be able to get them back just by stopping and restarting the spooler service - you shouldn't need to reboot the server......
