PRINT SUBSYSTEM UNAVAILABLE!?!?!??!? 1

[dpresley]

Why does this keep happening? I have a peer-to-peer network of about 60 computers that have win2k on them. I have a printer connected to one of the computers and a computer trying to print over the network to the printer. The computer that has the printer all of a sudden looses ALL printer drivers and i cannot access any of the print features, etc.. I had this problem before and i was told that it was the spoolsrv.exe and that needed to be executed.. that didn't work last time... havn't tried it this time yet.. just looking for help!!!!!

thanks,

Thanks a lot
This was a problem i have been trying to find a solution
for past one month I even tried repairing etc
but so simple

I myself had stopped windows messenger service to suppress
printer notification coming to my console when others print
and it might have caused the problem

Anyway thansk immensely
