• How can I fix a printer spooler issue: when I reset the spooler will return to stop mode.

  When I want to use my computer, I have to insert the CD of Lexmark and reinstall it.  My operating system is XP Pro and I use a Lexmark Z55 printer.

  I have to re - install the printer almost after each use.  I went through technical help with Lexmark and they advise me to contact Microsoft.

  The problem is the printer spooler and it will go back to stop mode after each use.

  Would appreciate any help

  Thank you

  I'm not Bruce (although I can see why you might have thought if :-)).

  You haven't seen a 'Version 3' as in this picture (or, as Bruce page, may be Version 2 or both):

  It can be a bit difficult to find the utility appropriate among everything in the Resource Kit.  Try to download just cleanspl.exe there--> http://honestpchelp.com/2011/cleanspl-exe-print-spooler-cleaner/ (which is not my site, but I downloaded the file in the past and it seems to be both authentic and malware-free).

• Devices and printers suspendusent/Print Spooler error causing printing issues

  Hello fellow forum participants and Rangers.

  I tried the things:

  (1) sometimes restarting the PC would magically make it work.

  (2) restart Printerspooler fix the problem

  (3) automatic setting rather than manual Bluetooth function has failed.  (has worked for most of the people similar/same problem).

• Photosmart HP 6520: Print spooler

  I was able to print from my phone (Samsung Galaxy s7) without problem on several different HP using the card of HP printers in. In the last three weeks, I get the message that has not stopped the print spooler. I took the plug stop, off, reinstalled, and I get the same message.

  Hey @castettower, Hello and welcome to the Forums of HP!

  I understand that you see a message that has not stopped the print spooler. As I understand it, there is no option to restart the spooler given only with a Windows operating system, but I'll help you with an alternative.

  First of all, we will make a copy of all your personal data, photos, etc. on an external device. Then try to clear the cache of your printing application:

  1. Press the Menu button , then select Control Panel(or settings ).
  2. Click handler applications ( Apps).
  3. Tap the icon that you want to repair.
  4. Click Empty the Cache.

  After you complete these steps, check if the application is working correctly. If it still does not respond, repeat steps 1-3, and then click delete data.

  Keep in mind, deletion of the data of the application deletes any custom options and settings; It's the same as uninstalling and reinstall the application.

  If this resolves the issue, please click Accept as Solution button to mark your post as solved. If the problem persists, let me know and I will do everything I can to help.
