How to start the print spooler stopped?

My system: Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition, XP SP 3

My printer: Epson Stylus PHOTO R320.

When I try to set the margins of a page from WordPad is the first message: ' before you can perform tasks related to printer such as layout or print a document, you nee to install a printer. " You want to install a printer now? " I press 'Yes'.

This produced the message printer is 'operation could not be performed. The print spooler is not running. »

After days trying various troubleshooting of Microsoft and Epson there is a failure to complete the thread or 'operation could not be performed. The print spooler is not running. »

What, pray, say, is the fix?

Click on ' Start'---> "Run"---> type "Services.msc" without the quotes in the Run dialog box and click on 'Ok'. '. Scroll down to the print spooler , made service a right-click and select ' properties'.»» Click the Start button in the "Service status" box, and in the startup type box, select automatic. Good luck.

  • 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.
