When I click the add printer wizard in WinXP nothing
happens. It does not bring up a dialog box or
anything.This has been happening on a few workstations. I
once had to reinstall XP to get this to work. Any other
suggestions on how to fix this without a reinstall?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
 
Same problem here, but with additional symptoms:
- No printers listed under Start/Settings/Printers
- Able to select printers and print some docs.
- Not able to print HTML docs from Outlook or IE
Same with you?
 
a) Ensure the print spooler is started... From the command prompt, type

net start spooler

and hit enter

b) From the command prompt, type

sfc /scannnow
