By default, the print spooler on Windows 2000 transfers up to 1 MB of data in an RPC call. The default on Windows Server 2003 is 50 MB. When you have a large number of print queues, the buffer size required in order to transfer the data for the EnumPrinters RPC call can be greater than 1MB.Add the following registry value under the key:
