I'm receiving this error on my Win XP machine when trying to print to a shared printer (also on the Win XP machine):The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( Srv ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: \Device\LanmanServerI'm also getting this error on the same Win XP machine:Event Source: Srv Event ID: 2011The server's configuration parameter "irpstacksize" is too small for the server to use a local device. Please increase the value of this parameter.If I disable or set manual on my server or computer browser in services, I eliminate the error, but I can't print. I've increased the irpstacksize to the max - 0.0c (12). I've disabled my firewall - no difference. I'm running a wired network through a Netgear router.I've searched google and eventid.net for a resolution with no luck.My system - Win XP SP3, processor 2.91 GHz, memory 2.75 GB, all patches updated.What am I missing? Can anyone help?1 person needs an answerI do too

To be clear - you're trying to print to a shared printer that is actually connected to the same machine you're printing from?What kind of printer is it? How is it connected? (USB? LAN? Other?) -B- http://www.officeforlawyers.com Author: The Lawyer's Guide to Microsoft Outlook

For those of you interested - probably no one since I had no responses - the problem is solved. The cause of this problem was Acronis True Image. It requires additional "filters" to operate which affects the stack size. Everything I've read said to increase the irpstacksize and if not present, create a dword value with the name being "IPStackSize." Acronis webexed into my computer, changed the dword to "ipstacksize" (all lower case), and solved the problem. Just goes to show that everything you read on the internet, in many different places, is not always true.

Just goes to show that everything you read on the internet, in many different places, is not always true.Interesting. FYI, 0x0C hex (decimal 12) is NOT the maximum value for IRPStackSize in Win XP. That's outdated information. Although this article states that "The maximum valuefor Windows 2000 is 50 (0x32 hex)" the article also "applies to" Windows XP: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/177078BTW, you mention IPStackSize and ipstacksize. Are these typos or did you leave out the R (or r) intentionally? And what value did Acronis set it to?BTWx2: I have Acronis True Image 11.0 and it works just fine with IRPStackSize set to 0x15 (decimal 21).

I had a typo - it is in fact "irpstacksize" and all lower case. The value was set to decimal 21 I have True Image 10.0. Acronis must have fixed the registry entry in version 11.
