Printer operation cannot continue due to lack of resources. The print subsystem

Dears,

I have lost all the installed printers in Win2K Server.
When I tried to add new printer it say alert "Printer
operation cannot continue due to lack of resources. The
print subsystem is unavailable". I have tried to restart
the spooler service. It successfully started but when I
opened the Printer Folder, it automatically again stopped.
After this try I also set the spooler to restart if failed
till two-failure attempts. But the matter is still there.
When I try to add new printer it again shows same alert.

Please guide me. I have sufficient resources. Spooler
again and again stopped (I tried to restart) when trying
to add new printer. I have checked my system for viruses
with Norton updated ant virus software but no virus is
found in my PC.

Thank you in advance.

Regards,
Naveed Ashraf

I am having the exact problem as the person who originally posted this question. However, I get lost at step 6. The directions are to click Start and key regedit then press enter. I'm not a technical person and I don't really know what I'm doing. Any assistance would greatly be appreciated.
