spoolsv.exe problem

[Tim]

I am running XP Home SP2 on an AMD Athelon machine. All of the life is
sucked out of the computer because spoolsv.exe is running and sucking 100%
of the cpu. I open task manager and end process but it comes back. I was
trying to print it a zebra lp2844 for UPS labels from another computer on
the network while on the UPS site. The LP2844 is local on the AMD. When I
temporality stop spoolsv.exe the machine works fine but when it starts up
again the machine is unusable.

Thanks,
Tim

You need to find updated drivers for the printer from the printer
manufacturer.

Image Writer was the problem, we had print jobs pending, we just cancelled
all and problem fixed
