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.

How to restore the print spooler in the printers/faxes folder in Control Panel
Recently discovered, I can't print because all the information of the printer in my printers and Faxes folder in Control Panel had disappeared. When I clicked on "Add a printer" it is said "operation could not be performed. The print spooler service is not running.
When I tried different ways to study or to restore service, it does not appear that the print spooler service is here, so that no printer can be installed.
I would like to know how to fix this problem and get the returned printers in service again.
Help, please!
Yes, I tried your suggestions. It was useful, but it didn't completely solve my problem. The spooler was still missing.
I think that there is something different going on inside the machine, because other funny things started to happen, alarmed me thinking that there is some hidden virus eating away at the system code!
I ran MS security scan several times and also McAfee Security Suite. Security under the full Scan scan found a virus, but it doesn't seem to be the problem after I got Safetly purged, Scan it. McAfee came up with nothing.
So, the way I finally solved it my problem was to do a full restore from backup, and if the operating system was restored. In this way, I know that the functions of the printer will be restored, who he was.
Sorry did not had time to review all the details that you suggest, but I was running out of time to try too much, so the "faster" was a system restore as the surest way to get rid of all the problems and restore to the original code.
Thank you, you have been very helpful.

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:
1053 error print spooler does not start thread
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.
I hope this helps users with error 1053 of print spooler.

Got paper stuck in the printer and now will only print proofs. How to reset the printer
Got paper stuck in the printer and now will only print proofs. How to reset the printer
It looks like you may have some saved jobs in your queue that need to be removed.
Here's how:
To clear the print queue, stop the print spooler service and delete all the jobs/print pending.
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 immediately. You must remove all print jobs backed up 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).
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.

The print spooler service is not running
I had a virus that I got rid of but now my printer does not print, it comes up with "the print spooler service is not running" and I can't add a printer. What should I do to solve this problem.
It's pretty easy to start the print spooler service... but may not stay started.
To restart the print spooler:
- Click Start, click Run, and then type services.msc in the run box, and then click OK
- Scroll down the list until you get to the print spooler and double-click the entry
- Make sure that the "Startup Type" is "automatic".
- Click on the button 'Start '.
- OK your way out
In the likely case where this isn't a solution permanent for you, when you post, include the following information:
- What version of Windows you have, including the service pack (start > run > winver > OK)
- What make and model of printer you have
- What antivirus you have installed
- If your computer was without an antivirus application or current subscription for your antivirus (in other words, how is it you got infected in the first place)
- What steps you have taken to determine that your system is now free of malware (i.e. what applications antivirus and antimalware you scanned the system with)
