Recently all use of printers on our Terminal Server have
disappeared and none of the users local printers will map
when they log in to the server. If you try to add a
printer as administrator straight on the server you get
the following error message:

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

Also we are receiving the following errors in the system
log:

"Source: TermServDevices
Event ID: 1100
Description: Initialization of Notify Failed."

I'm not sure if this is related but I thought I should
include it as well. Any suggestions on how to get
printers to work again on our terminal server would be
greatly appreciated.

We are running Windows 2000 Server SP3.

Try restarting the Print Spooler Service.
