On a Win7/64 with an Hp Laserjet P2055DN network printer, I get event 315 error 2114 (The print spooler failed to share printer Printername with shared resource name Printername . Error 2114. The printer cannot be used by others on the network)
on almost every startup. The printer works fine, both from the Win7 machine and a McBook wireless connected to my wired/wireless Linksys WRT160N Router. Printer driver is up to date, nothing stuck in print queue, all permission for sharing turned on.
Again, printer prints fine, but I keep getting the event and error message in Admin on startup. In Experts Exchange, in the server 2008 section here, I read this:
http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Microsoft_Operating_Systems/Server/Windows_Server_2008/Q_26250085.html?sfQueryTermInfo=1+10+2114+30+315+error+event . If it was a bug, MS would have fixed this by now, yes?. Any ideas why I keep getting the event message?
Clearly the machine tries to engage the spooler, fails, tires again and succeeds, leaving behind the event message. Thank you.

I can't give you an answer, but I have the exact same problem. I'm running a Win7/64 machine with an Epson R1900 printer, and each time on startup I get an error 2114 and an event ID 315. Usually some other function times out as well, although not always,
which I suspect is due to the above problem. Below you can see the information about the event. Someone with similar problems and/or with a fix?
