Blank Printer List

[HAMMER537]

I have a problem seeing my printers. I have XP SP1 and now updated to SP2.
Even before SP2 I could not see my printers. The page is completely blank
including add printer. I tried clicking on the add printer from the side
menu and no action occurred. I can still print from applications but I can
not add or reconfigure any printers. I also can not open any printers to
halt their actions. What is Wrong?

The Printer Spooler is running but the area showing the installed printers is
still blank and the add printer function still does not work.

No. I do not see how this is a significance because it happened on my home
edition XP and it is a stand-alone computer.
