Print Spooler service keeps stopping
search forums/try solutions throughout the day, but still frustrated. I have upgraded from vista home premium to windows 7 Home premium. seemed to lose my main printer (canon mf4150) and when you try to reinstall, found my continuous stop print spooler service. I changed its automatic startup, as well as its dependencies, but it stops very quickly after I start it (its dependencies are started). I don't know even how to check that drivers etc are installed more, because I can't shoot to the top of the list of printers without this service. Help?
I was hoping just to see. I don't really want to import the key into my system.
At this stage because the spooler starts not and you have already exported your key drivers. I start by exporting the Print all button and then remove the print drivers and print processors under the key environmental. Just the driver not any key.
Then start the spooler. Open devices and printers, this will initialize the spooler, rather than having to wait 30 to 60 seconds, if no printing information is requested.
Click on add a printer
If the wizard starts the spooler is running. If you get the error spooler does not work, then it's time to remove some entries from registry of the monitor. Alan Morris Windows printing team; Here Microsoft Knowledge Base search: http://support.microsoft.com/search/Default.aspx?adv=1

-There is no such thing as TMI if you request technical support.The print spooler service is stopped and the printers and Faxes screen is empty, you cannot add a printer and (usually), you cannot print either. It happened just before this problem occurred?
Start the print spooler and make sure that it is configured to start automatically:
Start > run > services.msc > OK
When the Services window opens, scroll down to the print spooler. Double click on it. Make sure that the "Startup Type" is "automatic". Click on the button 'start '. OK, go out of your way and close the Services window.
If the print spooler stops again immediately after return.

Print spooler continues to stop in a few seconds
For weeks now, I could not print directly from my laptop because for some reason any the print spooler service keeps shutting off after manally activate the process. Since the passage of Vista Premium to Win 7 Ultimate every time I try to print, I get an error saying that I need to install a printer and while the spooler is turned off.
I tried to delete my printer drivers, manually start the service, which allows dependencies, and a few other things but I did not have much luck. I have attemplted a solution there is some time, that worked for a few days, but then I finished up to the square.
Thanks for any help.

Double-click the print spooler service to view its page properties...
go to the TAB more far away on the right, should be "dependencies".
It should display a list of components or services that must be running in order for the spooler service is running.
The bottom in the properties page window shows the services that must run so that the components to run...
in essence, you would have a trail leading you exactly what service it is not working, which prevents the spooler service to run. -

As you mentioned that you are unable to find the folder of spool, check if spoolsv.exe is present under C:\Windows\System32.
Follow these tips and check if that helps.
Method 1: Run the built-in printer Troubleshooter and check if that helps.

Equium M40X: Cannot print - not done. Print Spooler service does not
My notebook Equium M40X has suddenly decided to stop from allowing me to print, gives me the message "operation was not completed. "print spooler service does not. I get this message even when you try to install the original installed printer drivers.
To resolve this problem, I went to the services.msc to attempt to start the print spooler, but the command is not here present and seems to be missing. I also tried to launch it by clicking Start and then run and typing "net start spooler", but even once, it does not. Can anyone help with this?
My laptop is an Equium M40X and the operating system is Windows XP Service Pack 2.
Hello
This error occurs because the spooler service has not been started or has stopped working.
It seems that this error is known to Microsoft and they decided to public an article in the knowledge base that could help solve this problem.http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314876
As you say that the spooler service must be restarted.
To start the spooler service, follow these steps:
1. click on start and then click Control Panel.
2. double-click Administrative Tools and then click Services.
3. double-click on the Printer Spooler service and then change the startup type to automatic. This option sets the spooler service starts automatically when you restart the computer.
4. If you want to start the spooler service immediately, click the Start button under the Service status fieldIf you will not be able to restart the spooler service, you can try to restore the Windows operating system to the point initially by using the Windows System Restore tool.
