PRINTING ISSUE - RPC

[tclark]

Hello, First time here! I need some assistance and hoping you can help. I
have three computers in the house. We use the linksys sytem and i have a
printer attached to one of the computers. For the past two weeks I have been
able to print from all three computers, however, now I am not able to print
from the other two. I am getting a message stating "the RPC server is
unavailable". I have no idea what that is or how something happened to it
since my computer isn't infected with a virus. Any suggestions would be
greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Did you try starting the Remote Procedure Call (RPC)?

In the Control Panel, click on Admin Tools, then Services, scroll down until
you find the entry and manually start it.

If it won't start, see:
