printers disappearing

[JS]

On my XP Pro pc, I have several printers set up, and every once in a while

when I go to print, all the printers disappear. None are listed in the

printers list. I can reboot and get them back, but is there anything I can

do to prevent it?

perhaps one of the printer drivers is killing you print spooler. Is

there one that give you problems. Uninstall that one first or try

updated drivers from the manufacturer.
