It looks like this thread, which goes back to Dec.6, 2005.

If I look in my "Services", "Print Spooler" service is set to
Automatic and is already running. The "Dependencies" tab shows
the Print Spooler relies on "Remote Procedure Call", but if
RPC wasn't there, the computer would be in very poor shape
and many other things would be busted.
