Check the service in services.msc. It should be set to "Automatic". If it's not set, change it. It if *IS* set then you have a printer driver problem. Check the event logs for errors indicating the service was stopped. See if anything happened just before. -- Regards, Hank Arnold Microsoft MVP Windows Server - Directory Services |
