printer service pool not running

[Maree]

Somehow my wireless printing capability evaporated. I
could print at 9 pm and then unable to print the following
8am. I have checked the host computer and it shows that
the printer is shared, have checked the laptop to find the
same thing. When I try to go into printer properties from
my laptop to check things out, it states that I can't have
access because "the printer service pool is not running".

Any thoughts? Thanks!

Have you tried starting the print spooler...?

From the command prompt, type

net start spooler

(and hit enter)
