Hello All,

What triggers the Print Spooler in Services to stop? I've had this
issue happen a couple of times on different machines and it's somewhat
annoying. Can anyone help with this issue?

Thanks in advance...

Usually, it's a third party component that is crashing - a printer driver,
language monitor, port monitor, print provider, etc.

How would one troubleshoot to determine what third-party driver, port
monitor, etc is causing the problem? I have an issue with the spooler
service crashing on one of my print servers as well.

Any hints are greatly appreciated.
