I attempted to install a Kodak PPM 200 printer on a Win2k
standalone system using drivers provided from Kodak. the
printer never installed correctly (system hung upon
install). Following a restart, the printer appeared under
the Printers icon on the control panel but would not
operate correctly. I attempted to delete the printer,
restarted the OS, and then discovered the following error
message whenever I attempted to Add Printer:

"Printer operation cannot continue due to lack of
resources. The print subsystem is unavailable."

I have attemted to install a another printer using the
provided Win2K install program, with similar -
unsuccessful - results.

I also used regedit to eliminate any listing of the
offending printer but that has not worked either.

Is there any way to re-install the print subsystem ? It
shows as running under Services (but I may be missing
something on this long list...)

Thanks,
RDB
