Error: the print spooler isn't runining.

Original title: THE print SPOOLER SERVICE is NOT RUNNING

I have trouble with my printer. my printer has disappeared from the folder and if I try to add more once the system says: THE PRINT SPOOLER SERVICE IS NOT running

If the problem is not resolved by restarting the spooler service, a common problem with the spooler to stop service is related to a faulty or incompatible driver for the printer.

I suggest to reinstall the printer driver compatible with Windows XP from the manufacturers Web site up-to-date.

If this does not resolve the question remove printer drivers and check for redundant printers by going to:

printers and faxes snapin > file > server properties > drivers

Delete selected print drivers, reboot, and reinstall the drivers compatibility

  • How to fix: Error 1053 of the print spooler

    Are you an error when you try to restart the print spooler?  Do you have your printer spooler error and now, do not restart?

    You saw "error 1053: the service did not demand launch or control in a timely.?

    There is a page of Microsoft support with information about this error, which can be found here.

    According to Microsoft:

    • Question: The ServiceBase class calls the OnStop method directly from the Service command handler that is defined in the ScDispatcherLoop of the Advapi32.dll file. After 30 seconds, if the ScDispatcherLoop thread is not ready to receive a new order of service from service control manager, Windows brand services controller out service as 'time '. Therefore, you receive this error message.
    • Resolution: to resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Microsoft .NET Framework.

    This resolution works for some, and allows the service to return to the correct functionality.  However, I want to provide workaround incase this option does not work for some.

    • Open the run command by selecting it from the start menu or by pressing the Windows key (to the left of the alt) + R
    • Type services.msc and press enter
    • Scroll down and double click on print spooler
    • Select the tab log
    • Uncheck the Allow service to interact with desktop
    • Click apply
    • Select the general tab for the print spooler, and then select start

    I have the confirmation that this workaround works for some users.  The link below will take you to a thread where this information has resolved this error a user in these forums:

    Here is the video where the workaround steps, listed above, were found.  The video also gives a graphical representation of these steps for those who prefer the Visual instructions.

  • Error 2: The system cannot find the specified file. Even after restarting the Printer Spooler service

    I tried all of the suggestions posted and have had no success in restarting my print spooler. Help, please.

    Original title: I tried to restart the print spooler as directed, and he returned the error 2: the system cannot find the specified file. He does that and is it fixable?

    @Winston Microsoft M committed Support Engineer 'expert '.

    I can see your response that you did take the time to reproduce the problem and then try your own ideas to check if the problem persists.

    Here is what I suggest to you, so you can learn how XP actually works:

    Start in the XP Recovery Console or Safe Mode, so Windows File Protection does not run.

    Rename your file c:\windows\system32\spoolsv.exe you can remember (such as spoolsv.bak).  Now, the file is "absent".

    Restart normally.

    Then try to start the Print Spooler Service and you will see the error.

    So why don't you follow your own advice and run SFC and troubleshooting automated (as you suggested) and check if the problem persists.

    Please report your results.

    When you see that it does help and that SFC does not replace the missing or damaged file (in the system32 folder) and that the automated troubleshooter does not help, will sing it a different song (we hope).

    Don't forget to rename your spoolsv.bak to spoolsv.exe when you're done messing around autour.

  • I want to add a printer, but get the error message "print spooler service does not work."

    I can't print from my computer.  This has happened with no other visible defects on the computer or the printer.

    When I use the printer in case of problem, and hit the 'add printer' link, I get the error message "print spooler service is not."

    "I did a search on"print spooler"but got no result

    Often, but not always, the symptoms you describe are caused by a corrupt print job stuck in the queue or a damaged printer driver.  However before you clean things up, on general principles, that you can download, install, update and run full scans with each of these two free programs:

    AntiMailware MalwareBytes
    SUPERAntiSpyware

    Do not operate the two scans simultaneously.  Each will take a long time, so start it and then go do something else for a while.

    Cleaning of printers

    NOTE: If after completing step has the print spooler is not always running after you launched the command "net start spooler", you will not be able to follow all the steps in "First Article".  Instead, go to the other link and download and get and use the utility 'cleanspl' such as described here.

    If the suggestions below do not resolve your problem, after back and don't forget to include the following information:

    • The version of Windows you have, including service pack (start > run > winver > OK)
    • The brand and model of printer you have (includes the manufacturer, model and model number, as in HP Deskjet 6800)
    • How the printer is connected to the computer (parallel, USB, network, wireless, etc.).
    • It happened just before this symptom started
    • What application antivirus you have and if your subscription is up to date and has been maintained continuously
    • The full text of the error messages related to printing, without paraphrasing


    A. Clean on print jobs pending

    • Open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK)
    • Type the following in the black command prompt window, and then press ENTER after each line

    net stop spooler
    del/q '% windir%\system32\spool\PRINTERS\*.* '.
    net start spooler
    output

    B. clean the old printer drivers and install the latest drivers by using the directions in One Article.  If you have (or had) a Lexmark printer, follow the instructions on the following site before installing the new drivers, as explained in its first Article: http://members.shaw.ca/bsanders/CleanPrinterDrivers.htm

  • How can I fix the error message "the print spooler service does not work."?

    All printer drivers that I had loaded do not work or have disappeared.  After you download the printer drivers, I got the error message: "operation could not be performed.  The print spooler service is not running. "I have Windows XP.  I need to print now!

    To start the print spooler service, click Start > all programs > Accessories > run. In the run box type in services.msc. In the Windows Services window right-click on print spooler and select open. You will then see the options "Start automatically", and then on the button 'Start Service'. Click on those and then click apply then OK. Who should start the print spooler service, however, if you get an error message, see the link below for more information.

  • My operating system is Windows XP Home Service Pack 3. In the process of printing two jobs, first filled, but second one hung up. Error message was the print spooler does not.

    I followed the suggestion to use start > Control Panel > administration tool > services > print spooler > properties.

    I get error 1075: the dependency service does not exist or has been marked for deletion.

    Printer worked this AM, but stopped working between two print jobs.

    I used Mr. Fixit to diagnose and fix the problem. Mr. Fixit indicates the print spooler service is not running, but cannot fix it.

    Is there a source code for Windows XP service pack 3 which can be downloaded to replace the corrupted code?

    Thanks for your help

    Curry:

    I have followed your suggestion after that someone else provided the steps for me to do the program accept net start spooler.

    The error message was THAT SYSTEM ERROR 1075 has occurred.

    The dependency service does not exist or has been marked for deletion.

    I have no problem with printing from the desktop wired or wireless laptop. But every time I print something this error appears in the Print Service event log.

    I found that the event ID 315 with error 2114 is a synchronization problem.  When I turn on the printer to the computer before, I get this error in the event log.  If I start first to the computer, and then turn on the printer, the error disappears.
