I am unable to install a local printer on windows xp home
edition. The add a printer wizard does not even work when
I click on the option under printers and faxes. Is there
a command line option I can try or any .dll's that may
need replaced or looked at? Is this a unique experience.
This is a new install with an OEM version cd. Is it
possible that I have bad cd media? Where could I get a
replacement cd?
 
a) Ensure the print spooler is running.... from the command prompt, type

net start spooler

and hit enter

b) From the command prompt run

sfc /scannow

After it's finished, reboot. Can you run the Add Printer Wizard now?
