Add Printer Wizard Does Not Work

Add Printer Wizard Does Not Work and Previously Installed
Printers Are Lost.

Found article in KB but does not say much.

Some application has created this issue by replacing a
DLL, but which one?

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Antonis

It took me a while but I figured it out.

The Lantastic client (don't ask...) installed its own
printui.dll in the windows\system32 directory. It was
there even after I removed the Lantastic client.

Renamed printui.dll to "printui.dll bad" and then
renamed "mprintui.dll" which is the original microsoft
file "printui.dll.

It is all better now....
