I am running XP Professional, and up to now I have been running a Xerox
Multifunction printer without any problems.
Recently I had a message of a printer problem, so I uninstalled the printer,
but not been able to reinstall. Evertime I try to Add Printer, it says
Operation Could Not Be Completed. The Printer Spooler Service Is Not
Running!!!
Any ideas how I can fix this, I have tried rebooting, disconnection, but now
at a loss!!!!
