Nearly always a sign of corrupted printer drivers. I'd advice uninstalling
on all the PCs and Server... since you probably won't be able to find out
which one is corrupted, but start at the Server.

Hello,

If the one/all print drivers are corrupt on the server wouldn't the problem
(print spooler stopping) be evident on all user PC's? We only have the
problem on a handfull of users and have re-loaded the drivers on the local
PCs but not yet on the server.

Thanks.

FYI - Turns out the problem is NetSupport Manager (remote PC access software)
- someone else reported the same issue with PC DUO - removed the
\netsup~1\client32.exe form services and I have a happy print spooler again.
