Print processor does not exist

I am running Vista Home Basic SP2, and all of a sudden my computer does not recognize my computer. Attempts to re - install gives the notification: "unable to install the printer. The print processor does not exist. "What could be the problem? How is this best set?

I finished by using System Restore and restore to the previous successful configuration. It worked, but I still don't know why the printer stopped working. Everything works fine now. Initially I had uninstalled the printer and re-installed, but he would never let me complete the installation.

  • LaserJet P3010: Cannot install the printer. The print processor does not exist

    I have a LaserJet P3010 Series PCL 6. It gives me the following error when I try and add it to our print server: "unable to install the printer. The print processor does not exist. "Regardless of what kind of IP config I use, the test page I always manually print has 0.0.0.0 for everything, even with the manual entry of IP. It is brand new, fresh out of the box, and I installed a few of them before. There seems to be 2 sets of link one of them lights flashes green (even without a CAT cable) and the other shows not all colors. (I think that's the main, judging by its location). I know that the cable is good, but also over all cable infrastructure. Should I have a defective printer? Or did I miss something...

    Problem solved. Use another port.

  • Cannot install the printer. The print processor does not exist.

    Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit.  I am able to install HP LaserJet printers but no virtual printer.  I can not load the XPS from Windows printer or Print to OneNote.  I also tried to load more than one PDF printer and none of them work.  The error I keep gettig to "cannot install the printer.  The print processor does not exist. »

    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    My laptop has been reloaded from a picture, and I was not able to start the print spooler at all. I have studied the issue and cleaned files and registry entries and was able to print on real printers, but not virtual. That's when I asked the question.

    Finished reimage the computer again, and once again, I could not start the print service. We discovered that the image that the laptop was built from was actually a VMWare virtual machine, so we started to look in that direction.   We had to delete the following entry in the registry and rebooting, how the print spooler began to work very well.

    [Print HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors\ThinPrint for VMWare Port Monitor]

    You wanted to post this in case someone else ran into a similar problem.

    This is what worked for me.

    I copy the files from the print processor from another machine to work with the same architecture as the one who has the problem (x 86 or x 64).

    Step 1: Stop the print spooler service.

    Step 2: Copy all the files and folders on the system to work under C:\Windows\System32\spool\prtprocs\x64.

    Step 3: Make a backup of the system files listed in the C:\Windows\System32\spool\prtprocs\x64 problem.

    Step 4: Paste the files that you copy from the system of work in the case of the United Nations, the problem system.

    Step 5: Start the print spooler service.

    Try to connect or install your net printer and it should work now.

    I hope this work for all of you.

  • D110: Printer Destination does not exist - for D110 all-in-one

    This printer is connected via a Charter Communications wireless router wireless. Printing and scanning has been working well. 2 nights ago he stopped and we started getting the message "the destination printer does not exist" in the window of the printer.

    I am currently working on an iMac 10.6.8 running, but the same thing happened on a Macbook running the same. I just tried on this macbook again and he did print, although he had problems yesterday. Of course I tried earlier once more on the iMac and it did not work. I can print a page of test here, however.

    I tried the following:

    1 remove the printer and selling it.

    2 download a new copy of the driver and install it.

    3. follow the instructions to change the IP address via the web interface, stop the router and printer and then start up the two, router first, then the printer after it increased. relisted to the printer. The iMac certainly sees the printer for purposes of installation and status, but not for printing.

    What now?

    Thank you

    Hi@Ellen_B,

    I see you are having problems printing from Mac. I will definitely do my best to help you.

    Print a Network Configuration page to get the printer IPv4 address.

    Go to settings, wireless, print the Network Configuration Page.

    If you have a valid IPv4 address for the printer, then try and access the Web built-in to the printer server.
    Type the IP address in the address bar of your web browser. (Safari)

    It loads the page Web has?

    Fix permissions of the drive on the Mac:

    Close all applications.

    In the Apple menu, click OK, click Applications, and then click utilities.

    Double-click disk utility.

    Highlight your hard drive / partition on the left.

    Click on check and then repair disk permissions.

    Restart the computer...

    Reset the printing system:

    Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer deleted can be re-added later by clicking the sign plus (+) symbol.

    Click on the Apple icon and then click on System Preferences.

    Click on Printers & Scanners.

    Make a right click (or Ctrl + click) in the left white side panel, and then click Reset printing system.

    Click OK to confirm the reset.

    Type the name and the correct password.

    Click OK to reset the printing system.

    Then click on the sign to add the driver, highlight the printer +. (you may need to click the drop down menu to select the name of the printer) Then click the Add button.

    If multicast is disabled on the router, you will not be able to add the printer as a Hello device.

    If you encounter network problems, and then add the printer via the IP protocol.

    Hi Rapheek,

    Thanks for joining us again.

    You must copy and paste all the commands written in "BOLD" from the previous post on a Notepad and name the file as spooler.reg and save it to the desktop. Then double-click to run the file. This would create the print spooler service.

    Let us know the status of the issue.
