    Are there any troubleshooting tools available for Win 2008 R2 to troubleshoot printspooler crashes? We see there is a tool available for Win 2003 Print spooler crashes ( adplus.vbs), but unable to find one for win 2008 R2. Also, is there a tool like cleanspl.exe to completely delete all the printers in the Win 2008 R2. Please advice. Thanks.

    I have a first gear Print server PS-110 [2 port server with 2 parallel ports] with software for windows XP. I am converting from XP to win 7. My problem is that the first gear software will not run on Win-7. When I install the printer server on my XP system it crate two printer ports [PS326628_P1 and PS326628_P2], the two ports go to the same IP Address and the Print server will direct the information to the respective printer. I found a paper that explains that I need to create a TCP/IP port in win-7 “printers and faxes”. Wall win-7 does not allow me to create more than one port / IP Address.

    Question #1: How do I create more than one port /IP Address in win-7 “printers and faxes”?
    Question #2: How do I assign each printer to its port on the PS110?
