Printer won't print and PC freezes
Hi. In our office we are having some printer errors. When some people try to print, their computer freezes and won't print. We've tried printing from Word, Outlook and also Notebook.
We have a file server here and the printers are all connected to the network through that. The error message (on all 3 printers) says "Error - Spooling". I've tried restarting the server but not luck.
Can anybody help please?
