It all started with network error problem, I also got the ff errors" spooling
service not started" and also got a RPC server not available. I cannot ping
the server, but can access files to the server through explorer.

I deleted the printer file, and tried to add it back but I cannot find the
printer when i'm asked to browse because the server where that printer is
installed is not showing.

How to fix so I can print?

First thing to do is uninstall and reinstall correctly.

If the spooler service is not running, then here is how to start it:

If you receive a 1068 error when trying to start the printer, see steps 15
