Print Spooler service is not running, or active directory domain services is currently unavailable.

Original title: my printers on WIndows 7 seemed to have disappeared...

Printers are not listed for printing set up in Word, Notepad, Adobe, etc., when I try to add a printer, he said the local print spooler service is not running, or domain services active directory is currently unavailable.  Printers are shown on the list of devices, and when I run the troubleshooting it says that the print spooler problem is solved.  but I still can't print.  The question is on a laptop Samsung bought in store Microsoft to OakBrook, Illinois.

It started on 8 July and I was not able to resolve since.  In reviewing the restore points, I don't see any problems, and printers are recorded in the other PC, I plugged in.

Thanks for your help.

Imran,

Thank you very much for the reply onse.  I appreciate it.  I tried your suggestions and everything in the fix he said that the print spooler has been repaired, it would not print.  I ran the scanner and came without any problem.

I did a restore of the system to a point prior to the issuance and the printers are busy, apparently something in an update has a problem.  I'll look next week and see what happens.

Thanks again for your reply and your suggestions, I appreciate it.

  • ASA LDAP is not find memberOf Active Directory domain users group

    It seems that any group I have add an account for the ldap memberOf thinks it is except for the domain users group. Is there a specific exclusion of this group somewhere?

  • the print spooler service may not be running

    Hello

    I have 4 computers around here, and I'm trying to get a printserver running on one of them, so we have installed windows 2008, set up as a server to printing etc..
    Now when I try to add the printer to my computer laptop windows 7, it works perfectly, and is the same for one of the windows xp workstations.
    However, when I try to add the printserver on windows server 2003, it starts talking about missing drivers.

    The printer is a HP LJCP3505 PCL6, and he is already working on a normal (eg. non-printserver associated) network.
    I downloaded almost all the drivers, I could find from the HP website, but whenever I try to add them, it tells me that they are not valid drivers.
    and on another computer windows 7, I get the following error message:

    Could not connect to the printer.
    On the server print spooler service could not be executed.
    Restart the spooler or restart the server

    (on a side note: it's a translated error message, our systems are not English)

    I don't know if they are related, but I checked the print spooler service, and it was fine (auto startup, active etc.).
    the same goes for its dependencies.

    Hi LeanderML,

    Your question is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for Windows Server on TechNet. Please ask your question in the Forums in Technet Windows Server.

  • The Print Spooler Service is not running. Operating system is Windows XP Service Pack 3.

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

    System in automatic mode but State of the said service stopped.

    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

    Robear:

    I'll be back of the travel.  I'm after the suggestion of CARI.  Seems to be the right track.

    My print spooler system component is missing from the remote procedure call.  If I restore it, I think that the print spooler is reactive.  Suggestions of curry hit Start, Program Files, accessories and they type net start spooler.  However, after the departure, I don't see any Program Files, so am unable to complete the suggested path.

  • "Printer properties cannot be displayed. The print spooler service is not running. "(even when it works)

    When I click with the right button on a particular printer and try to view the properties of it, I get the following message:

    Printer properties cannot be displayed.  The print spooler service is not running

    It is, it is run as go to-> Services administrative tools in the Control Panel checks.

    One of the 'printers', I installed is "send to OneNote 2007".  I can click right on this very well - just not this another printer. I'd be able to do if the print spooler is not running?

    Indeed, if I turn off the print spooler, * all * printer in "Printers and faxes" disappear.  So the fact that I'm still see them first place suggests to me that the printer spooler is running.

    I posted this on Microsoft.public.windowsxp.general a while ago and someone suggested that I visit this site .  Problem is C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS is empty.  It is empty when the print spooler is running and it is empty when it is not.

    Also, I was unable to install KB896423 since I am running SP3.  Try to install he did the following:

    Setup has detected that the version of Service Pack for this system is newer than the update you are applying.

    There is no need to install this update.

    The printer is a "local printer attached to this computer" connected via a "Standard TCP/IP Port".  Personally, I think such a printer should be called "a network printer or a printer attached to another computer", but that is the terminology used by the "Add Printer Wizard".

    Hello terrafrost,.

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers community.

    What is the model number of the printer that you are using?

    Printing a "Standard TCP/IP Port, is used for a printer that is directly connected to a network, not on your local system.

    I would try to uninstall your printer and reinstall your printer.

    Hope this helps Chris.H

  • 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:

    1. What version of Windows you have, including the service pack (start > run > winver > OK)
    2. What make and model of printer you have
    3. What antivirus you have installed
    4. 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)
    5. 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)

    Hello

    ·        Have you tried the steps that are listed in the article manually and see if the problem is resolved?

    ·        Who is the manufacturer of the printer and what is the model?

    ·        When did you get the error message when you try to install the printer or when you try to print?

    I suggest you follow the steps mentioned below.

     

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to check if the Printer Spooler service is started.

    a. Click Start and click Run.

    b. type services.msc in the box run.

    c. find the print spooler service and right click on it.

    d. click Properties and verify that the startup type is set to automatic.

    Method 2:

    Step 1:

    To start in safe mode, follow the steps mentioned below.

    a. restart and keep tapping F8 until you reach the start menu.

    b. Select safe mode and press ENTER.

    Step 2:

    In safe mode, delete the printer and spool driver files. To do so, start Microsoft Windows Explorer, and then delete all files and folders in the following two folders (where C: is the drive where you installed Windows XP):

    C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Printers

    C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Drivers\w32x86

    I have a HP Officejet pro 8600, which was acquired in may 2014.  The printer has stopped working on the print commands from the PC, which is a HP Pavilion.  I tried several methods, including the closure of all of the network modem, router comouter and printer n restart troubleshooting system.  (It shows an error message that says that it does not connect to the printer to make a print job).  I am connected via ethernet cable to reroute around the wireless network, and it still wouldn't print docs for the PC.  I'm going to print incoming faxes.  I did another thing troubleshooting, and it gave me a message that the "print spooler service does not work."   I also deleted the printer from the control panel and reinstalled the software from the CD provided with the machine.  I will need very detailed instructions if the fix is complicated.  Do not assume that I have "will know how to do this.  Laughing out loud.  Thanks in advance for any help.  This is driving me crazy (more)!  D

  • When you try to add a printer, get error Printer Spooler service is not running

    I lost my printer and when I click Add printer, I get the message of this operation could not be completed. The print spooler service is not running. Then, the computer detects the new hardware and says the RPC server is unavailable can help?

    Check the status of 'Print spooler' & RPC (remote Procedure Call) services in the services window. You can check the link below to change the status of the services.

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc736564%28WS.10%29.aspx

    After the services start, delete all previous printers. Uninstall the drivers and then try to reinstall the printer again.

    If the problem still persists to the print spooler, you can import the registry across the entry below machine & merge the machine to issue:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Spooler

    Also check out the link for your RPC unavailable problem:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/242079

    Now, try to restart the print spooler new service & try to install the printer.

    Note: instead of copying files from another machine you can also run the SFC/scannow.
