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

I have Virtual PC 5 loaded on my Mac G4 Powerbook. It is running Windows 2000 Professional.

I downloaded the drivers and software and loaded them. My printer is attached via USB. However, when I tried to print I got an error message "Printer Operation Cannot Continue Due To Lack Of Resources. The Print Subsystem Is Unavailable."

When I go to add printer there is nothing there except that icon. I saw that someone else had this question and there was a solution but it was for Windows NT. I could not follow those directions with what I have.

The document I'm trying to print is from a program that uses access so I can't just drag and drop it into my Mac dock as I do with Word documents. Please, somebody, come up with a solution.
