SYMPTOMS
When you use the Point And Print feature in Windows Vista to try to print to a shared printer, the print server experiences a Stop error. You receive one of the following Stop error messages on the print server:

Error message 1


 * Stop 0x000000D6

Error message 2


 * Stop 0x00000019

You experience this problem if the following conditions are true:
 * The print server is running Microsoft Windows Server 2003 or Microsoft Windows XP.

Note Typically, this problem occurs when the print server is running a Japanese version of Windows, and the print server is configured to use the Japanese (Japan) locale.
 * The client computer does not render the print job.

By default, the Windows Vista print spooler uses client-side rendering. However, the print job is rendered on the server if client-side rendering is turned off, or if the print spooler detects that the client's print driver does not support client-side rendering.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because the Win32k.sys driver cannot parse the spool file that the Windows Vista-based computer creates.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section.
