I installed an Epson printer locally through a Usb port
to Win XP Pro on my computer. I had no problem printing
locally at that time. I then shared my printer and
instaled the printer on my other computers so that i
could print throught my network.

Now every time I start up my computer the spoolsv.exe
takes over and the computer becomes very slow. I have
sinced uninstalled my printer but I still get the same
problem. (Note: I also did an update of Windows XP around
the same time)

Does any know what the problem could be?
 
Check for updated drivers at the Epson website, if they are newer, uninstall
and reinstall the printer.
