print spooler
 

You have the exact problem that I had, which gave me hope
that there was probably a fix. I found it in another
place on the MS site. Here is the link for the directions
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;314876. Note: My system was already set on "automatic"
but I unselected it and then selected it again and did
click on the "start" button, which is the last
instruction. It worked for me--hope it does for you too.
