    Hi,

    Due to firewall restrictions preventing rpc port range, I need to create a static port for the print spooler.  It's currently blocked and printing is working, but I prefer that it run in a standard configuration.

    Is there a way to do this?

    Thanks

    No there is not, the spooler request is for a dynamic port.  If there is some way to filter dynamically allocated ports you might be able to cobble something together.
