I was trying to upgrade the firmware in a printer. Now when I try to access my printers they all have dissapeared. I check the printer spooler service and it has stopped. When I restart the services the printers reappear, but when I try to access the printers the spooler service stops, and they all dissapear again. Does anyone know a fix for this?
