Printer wont work

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.print_fax (More info?)

After downloading and installing XPSP2 , I am unable to
print from my printer. The message says Unable to
communicate , start MP Service from Services Applet then
right click Status Monitor. I have tried all these
things, restarted puter, rechecked settings & properties,
nothing happens. Any help would be appreciated. Tearing
my hair out.

There is a qfe available for this. It's in tcpip.sys.

Programs that connect to IP addresses that are in the loopback address range
may not work as you expect in Windows XP Service Pack 2
