Printer Spooler not working!
Does anyone know why the print spooler does not work, what are the causes and how it can be fixed? Because of this problem, I am unable to install a printer on my computer. I spent endless hours on the phone with tech support trying to install a printer, but without success... Then we had the errorr message saying that the printer spooler does not work.
Thank you!

printer is not working, "the print spooler service is disabled" when it is not
Hello
I received a message that my pc required for the loading of driver software for a new unknown device, although I had nothing added.
Now, I find that my printer is not working.
I tried to accept the "locate and install driver software" message, but it does not work.
I tried to uninstall the printer driver so that I can reinstall them, but I get a message that the uninstallation was failure because the print spooler service is disabled.
I checked the print spooler service is set to auto & seems to be on.
Would appreciate any opinion appropriate for a no no very savvy tech.
Thank you
This could be the reason why you do not see the printer in the Control Panel, printers. Try this, go to control panel, printers, if you see the printer listed to remove it. If you don't see the printer, the service could stop, go to services then and click on "Restart the service" (blue link top left), then go back to printing, its listed hopely now and you can remove it (right click). Now try to reinstall the printer.
If that doesn't work try the system restore, restore to a date when the printer works fine.

Print spooler not turned on do not, how do I turn it on?
I did a search print spooler, but when I try to open it with windows search, nothing happens. Troubleshooting repeatedly tells me that my printer does not work because it is turned off. I tried to uninstall, but impossible to reinstall without the print spooler on.
Type services in the start search box, press on enter.
Go to the bottom of the list of print spooler and click on start.

I downloaded the new software recently and now my Epsom printer does not work
iMac late 2009. Processor 3.06 GHz
Hi, I downloaded the new software recently and now my Epsom printer does not work and my Wi - Fi on the computer keeps dropping out.
I spoke with Epsom and they recommended to remove the drivers and reinstall them. Now, I can not install the ad pilots Wi - Fi does not work correctly. The research on this forum I see there have been many problems with the new version of the software. Can someone help me?

Try a reboot.
Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolate a problem by using a different user account
If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account. Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

changed router photosmart b110 e-all-in-one printer does not work
Hi aged60,
I'm sorry to hear that you have linking problems with your Photosmart B110 printer.
I've included a link to HP Wireless Printing Center Troubleshooting web page. In the section entitled "your printer was working on the network before and now is not" there are clear instructions to follow when your router has been changed or updated. If you follow the instructions you should be able to communicate with your printer.
