How can I fix a printer spooler issue: when I reset the spooler will return to stop mode.

When I want to use my computer, I have to insert the CD of Lexmark and reinstall it.  My operating system is XP Pro and I use a Lexmark Z55 printer.

I have to re - install the printer almost after each use.  I went through technical help with Lexmark and they advise me to contact Microsoft.

The problem is the printer spooler and it will go back to stop mode after each use.

Would appreciate any help

Thank you

I'm not Bruce (although I can see why you might have thought if :-)).

You haven't seen a 'Version 3' as in this picture (or, as Bruce page, may be Version 2 or both):

It can be a bit difficult to find the utility appropriate among everything in the Resource Kit.  Try to download just cleanspl.exe there--> http://honestpchelp.com/2011/cleanspl-exe-print-spooler-cleaner/ (which is not my site, but I downloaded the file in the past and it seems to be both authentic and malware-free).

    Updates are not related to series numbers, so you must have done something compared to try to use an upgrade rather than an update.  Adobe not revise older versions of their software to adapt to the latest hardware/devices.  They create/sell new versions of their software for it.  If you subscribe to the Cloud at some point you shouldn't have a problem with the software becomes obsolete.

  • How can I fix my printer when it prints on different places on the page?

    Thanks in advance,

    Installation program:

    HP Photosmart C4280

    Windows XP Service Pac 2

    Office 2007

    Adobe CS2 Bundle

    Details:

    I pre-printed forms on semi-glace 4 x 6 paper.

    I have attemtped to print in the empty fields.

    When I press print, the printer does not consistenty start in the same place.

    so to adjust the document / image is not applicable, because is not printing to the same place.

    I tried printing from Illustrator, photoshop, acrobat, word, & windows fax and picture viewer

    and got the same results.

    Printing on letter size paper works very well (and I love the printer by the way).

    Is there a hardware problem, or is this driver/software problems?

    How can I fix it?

    Thanks again for any help.

    I think that it is a hardware problem.  The rollers are probably problems picking up the thick supports relatively smooth.  You might have better results to clean the rolls of paper with a wet paper towel collection.  Also make sure that the paper is loaded and the paper guides have been correctly positioned.

  • How can I keep my print spooler active Service after blocking with FixIt

    When you try to use one of my printers online, I receive an error message that

    "Operation cannot be completed. Print Spooler service is not running. »

    I used FixIt to repair this problem. It is said that the problem is solved.

    But, he is not fixed... as soon as I try to activate a printer, the error message is repeated.

    "Spooler SubSystem App has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. »

    Participated in the Windows Update... without success

    A ran a scan antivirus (AVG)... no virus found

    PC Tune Up (AVG)... without success

    At least he's polite.

    It could be that your print spooler queue is blocked, then you can clean it up.

    To clear the print queue, stop the print spooler service and delete all the pending print files.
       
    You cannot delete all print jobs in the queue so that the Print Spooler Service is running.
          
    To stop the Print Spooler Service, click Start, run and enter in the box:
           
    services.msc
           
    Click OK to open the Services Applet.
           
    Locate the Print Spooler Service, right click and choose 'Properties' and then click on the "Stop" button to stop the Print Spooler Service is running.
       
    The option "Startup Type" of Service properties print spooler is usually set to "Automatic" (which is now a good time to check it out).
       
    If the "Startup type" is not set to "Automatic", set the "Startup type" to "Automatic" If that is your desire (which now is the time to check it out).

    Do not try to start or restart the Print Spooler Service again... you must remove any saved print jobs first.
       
    Then, delete all updates pending upward and forward to printing from XP.  If they do not print before, you will need to send the to the printer again.
       
    Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the following folder (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):
       
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS
           
    Delete all the print jobs in queue (select and delete all the files) in the folder if the folder is without waiting for print jobs.  The folder must be empty when you are finished.
           
    Reboot your system and check the Print Spooler Service again to make sure the Print Spooler Service restarts automatically restart (given that the startup type is set to automatic).  If it is not started, right click on and start it.
       
    After the reboot, check again the spooler service for printing and the 'Status' column for the print spooler must be read "started."

    Submit new failure of print jobs.

  • How can I get my printer spooler running I get error 1075 when I try to start it

    Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

    Ideas:

    • You have problems with programs
    • Error messages
    • Recent changes to your computer
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem

    If you see something like this:

    Cannot start service on Local computer print spooler.
    Error 1075: The dependency service does not exist or has been marked for deletion.

    Error 1075 means "ERROR_SERVICE_DEPENDENCY_DELETED".

    This means that there is some Service think that it depends on to start the Print Spooler Service that is missing.  It's maybe the printing or drivers that have been uninstalled software.

    If really, the dependency service exists and simply not work (dependence, Services must be started and running), you will get an error like this:

    Cannot start service on Local computer print spooler.
    Error 1068: The dependency service or group could start.

    You now or you already had all of the installed Lexmark printers?

    If the Service print spooler used to work well, do you have added or removed all printers since he worked?

    To view your Services, click Start, run and enter in the box:

    services.msc

    Click OK to open the Services Applet.

    Highlight the Print Spooler Service, right-click and choose properties you can see what is happening.  You will be especially interested in the startup (generally set to automatic) type and the items listed in the Dependencies tab.

    Always print spooler Service usually depends on the remote procedure call (RPC) Service is running, so if the remote procedure call (RPC) Service is not running, find it in your Services, launch it and set the startup type to automatic.

    If the remote procedure call (RPC) Service is not listed as a dependency for the Print Spooler Service, you can add it.

    You must see what Services depends on your Print Spooler Service, and then restart them (and their startup type automatic value), or if you have the dependency Services listed for items that are more installed on your system, you must inform the print spooler that she needs more of them to start.  Registered Addiction Services that are no longer needed must be removed.

    For example, I said to my Print Spooler Service depends on the remote procedure call (RPC) Service, and also depends on the Service Jose (and of course there is no Jose service).

    When I try to start my Print Spooler Service, I get an error 1075.  It's logical.

    If I look at the Print Spooler Service properties Dependencies tab in the applet Services however, it does not list the Jose Service as a dependency, but if I query the Print Spooler Service broken from a command prompt, I can see what ir really depends on to start and it looks like this:

    [SC] GetServiceConfig SUCCESS

    Service_Name: Spooler
    TYPE: 110 WIN32_OWN_PROCESS (interactive)
    STARTUP TYPE: 2 AUTO_START
    ERROR_CONTROL: 1 NORMAL
    BINARY_PATH_NAME: C:\WINDOWS\system32\spoolsv.exe
    LOAD_ORDER_GROUP: SpoolerGroup
    TAG                               : 0
    Display_name: Print spooler
    DEPENDENCIES: rpcss
    Jose
    SERVICE_START_NAME: LocalSystem
           
    I need to delete the Service jose as a dependency for the Print Spooler Service (and leave just the rpcss Service), then the Print Spooler Service will start.

    If you don't see the problem in the Print Spooler service dependencies tab, see what are actually of a command prompt window Print Spooler Service dependencies.  To do this, click on start run and in the type box:

    cmd

    Click OK to open a command prompt window.

    In the command prompt window, query the spooler to print (spooler) Service by entering the following command:

    sc qc spooler

    Whatever it is listed under needs of DEPENDENCIES is running before starting the print spooler.

    If there are DEPENDENCIES listed for things that are more installed, you can fix it, but first of all, we need to know what is indicated, then we can remove the ones that are not needed.

    If you make adjustments, do not forget to restart your system and make sure that changes "stick".

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

  • How can I activate my printer spooler

    Hello, I am currently using Windows XP Home Edition and I was attacked by a Trojan virus. I could get the PC in safe mode and by installing an anti-malware program, but for some reason that I can't print more than the laptop.

    Whenever I try to install the CD for my HP photosmart printer, it passes through the installation process and I am able to print after that I connected the USB cord to the laptop. But then when I restart the computer, my printer icon does not appear in the folder printer & faxes.
    When I try to add my printer, a message that "the print spooler service is does not work."
    What driver do I download on microsoft.com or is there another way I can activate the printer spooler in Windows XP?

  • How can I get a print spooler for jet Office 6500 E709n

    somehow my print spooler is gone how can I get a new one, I ran the installation, diagnosis and utility and no doesn't solve the problem. I can see the printer on my wireless network but cannot print on it

    If your PRINT SPOOLER IS 'GONE', you may need to contact WINDOWS for that matter. I would check everything first well.

    What operating system do you use? If windows 7 or XP, follow these steps:

    1. click on Start Menu
    2 right click computer
    3. choose MANAGE
    4. click on Services and Applications
    5. choose the Services
    6 scroll down until you see PRINT SPOOLER, if it is there, click on it and RUN it

    IF you DO NOT SEE what LIST, you will need to communicate with WINDOWS, because you have to maybe reformat your OS, but contact them first.

    Let me know if this can help, thank you.

    -------------------

    The above is more recent information included in my previous convenience store so I'll add
    it to that one so that others, the question can see. This change is mainly due to Black-
    Viper changing its site if the Vista settings did not appear on the old links.

    After you have reset the services, you will need to use other methods in solving the problems
    to clear the spooler above and even re - install the printer.

    I hope this helps.
