I have a win2k3 server with many printers being shared on it. &nbsp;All are fine except for one an HP P2015 laser. &nbsp;It currently displays &quot;offline&quot;. &nbsp;I have tried to click &quot;use printer online but I get an error message &quot;Operation could not be completed&quot;. &nbsp;I have rebooted the machine, and also tried net stop spooler and then net start spooler to correct the issue. &nbsp;<br />

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.
