Typical error message about the spooler crashing. A
crashing spooler is pretty indicative of a bad printer
driver being loaded. I would look in your event viewer to
see what printer is causing this, then remove the
printer's driver and replace it a newer one or one that
comes with the operating system natively.

Your spooler service has crashed.
This happens quite often when you install 3th party printer drivers
on a Terminal Server.
The remedy is to uninstall all 3th party printer drivers and map all
printers that do not redirect automatically to a native driver on the
server. Check:

A crashing spooler is typical of a bad printer driver
causing some corruption. I would check your eventlogs to
see what printer(s) was(were) in use at the time of the
crash. I would then remove those printer's drivers and
replace them with known good drivers, either from the
original Windows 2000 disk or from the printer vendor's
website (after you test the new driver to make sure it
won't crash your server again).
