I don't do printing in Windows, but this is where I'd start.
On my Win2K machine, there is "Administrative Tools" in the Control Panel
folder. There is a shortcut called "Services" in there, or you could
navigate to Services within "Computer Management".
In "Services", you'll see "print spooler". It is possible that
stopping and starting that service, *may* do the equivalent of
the reboot you are using currently. But it doesn't change whatever
your underlying problem is.
