One of several identical notebooks I just loaded an image
on will not allow any printers to be added, even by an
administrator. Clicking on "Add Printer" does nothing.
Browsing the print server and selecting a printer at first
prompts you with the normal message of "Before you can use
this printer . . ." but clicking "yes" to load it also
does nothing. Does anyone have any idea what may be
causing this?
All other notebooks from this batch are working fine.
 
Perhaps the print spooler service on the problem laptop is not running for
some reason.

Open a Command Prompt and key the command:

net start spooler

What happens?
