I am getting the follwing error when printing from a 2008 Terminal Server to a local printer, through Remote Desktop on a Windows Vista SP1 machine.

Thunking spooler APIS from 32 to 64 process has stopped working.  

When it does print the output is often blank pages.

i added the additional drivers and it still gives me the same error.  I have copied in the driver cache from the client machines, and added those drivers in the additional drivers portion, and I have updated the dotnet framework to dot net 3.5 sp1.  still with the same result.

The issue is resolved.  Don't let the Easy Print propaganda fool you.  With Vista 64 machines you still need to install the additional 64 bit drivers on the TS and make them available as additional drivers..
