Print Spooler Service Problem

We are using a Windows 2000 Advanced Server with 10 printers (all HP) except for one Epson dot matrix. The print Spooler Service automatically stops out of the blue without warning or errors. I can simply go back into the Services and restart it, but it has become a niusance, occuring up to four times a day. I would appreciate all your suggestions.
