I go into the printer menu in XP to reconfigure a printer but I do not see
any printer listing nor the add printer icon. Is there a button I am
forgetting to set? (Note: My programs can select my existing printers but I
can not add a printer.)

From a command prompt, type:

net start spooler

and hit enter

See lf they have returned.

The spooler is running but the area showing the installed printers is blank
and the add printer funtion still does not work.
