I have Windows XP Prof. My computer was turned off for 3 weeks do to
vacation. I used it Friday Aug 12 in am. and printer worked fine. Later that
day it did an automatic windows update. Since then I haven't been able to use
my printer from any application. When I go printers and faxes nothing comes
up. When I go to ctr/ alt/del it says that printers and faxes are not
responding. The printer shows up when I checked to make sure it isn't in
there 2 times. Any ideas how to correct this?

Try manually installing the printer drivers again. If that doesn'
work, try uninstalling the updates or by doing a system restore to ge
it back to the original state in which it was working. Good luc
