When trying to add a printer you receive a error "Unable to add printer. Operation could not be completed" Error and you receive error 126 in event log for these instance.
Solution:
In "Printers and Faxes" remove all printers and go to File menu, select Server Properties.
In Server Properties, open drivers tab and delete printer drivers
Stop Print Spooler Service.
Then go to %windir%\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\3 directory
Backup the directory and remove all files and folders inside it
Start Print Spooler Service
Now you will be able to add printers.
If you have problems with adobe PDF printer after following above steps, copy files related to adobe pdf from backup in the %windir%\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\3 directory.
That should do the trick!!!
