Re: Missing Printers - Blank Printers and Faxes

START | RUN | Type 'services.msc' & check to see if PRINT SPOOLER is running. If not,
start it & make sure it's set to automatic & restart your machine.

I have had a problem for a while now and can't figure it out. My main
computer which has my printers installed on it now does not show any
printers. However, I can see them under "View Workgroup Computers" as they
are shared printers. My problem is that I cannot install any printers. I
can print and they show up under printers to select from programs but I am
having trouble updating programs like Adobe.

I checked the print spooler under Services and it is running. I have stopped
and restarted it but the "Printer and Faxes" screen is still blank. I have
no viruses and have scanned for them with Norton, Trend Micro, and even ran
Hijackthis.

Any suggestions?
