Hello all,

As part of our XP embedded setup, we need to run an add printers dialog.
So, I put a run once resource in a component that contains the command line
for the add printers dialog - something like "rundll32.exe
PrintUI.dll,PrintUIEntry /il", if memory serves correctly. This dies during
FBA with a "Operation could not be completed" error. Apparently, I need to
start the print spooler before I can add a printer. I've already tried
adding a run once key to do "net start spooler," but that doesn't seem to be
working either.

Can anyone tell me how to get this dialog running? Thanks in advance.
 
Have you tried creating Batch file and put in start up?

I have tried the command and everytime when start the device i get the
add printer wizard poping up.
