Printer Spooler problem
After reboot - "Spooler subsystem App stopped working and was closed". No printer listed on the control panel of the printer window.
Hello
In fact, I have corrected a problem like yours this morning.
It had to do with a corrupted driver.
As printers are not getting loaded, it's probably one of them who has corrupted drivers.
You can also go to windows-> system32->-> Printer Spooler
If there is no file you can remove the and try to restart the Printer Spooler service.
You can read a fairly long article about it here

Print spooler problem. ERROR (0X000006BE)
Print spooler problem. I have a problem with the spooler to stop continuous printing. I get this ERROR (0x000006be). I've seen a lot of suggestion already... such as printer drivers are corrupt, need to clear the printer, etc. I already went to SERVICES and connected so that administrator, assign the automatic print spooler, restarted the Services 50 times, etc. Nothing works. In response to a lot of suggestions, NOTE: I have not a printer is installed, I did not have any printer software installed, there is no DRIVER not installed appears to be damaged. When I go to control panel > printers... There is no printer listed. When I click on add a PRINTER, I get the message (0x000006be). Any suggestions

I'm on a Vista 64-bit operating system. I have a Xerox printer wireless network. I started having a month ago print spooler stops. The problem can settle with a reboot. Now the problem has appeared and will not disappear. I can restart the print spooler, it will show that it is started, but when I try to add the printer I always get an error message that contains error code (0X00000ba). I searched on the internet and see that this is not a unique problem, but I have yet to see a solution that works for me. I followed the procedure of Microsoft to solve print spooler problems; one that's "Mr. Fix It". That did not help. I tried to go back to restore points more aged, but which did not help. At this point I'm stuck on how to go forward. Any suggestions?
The problem will be back because somewhere there is a bug. It's certainly specific centres of suspicion about Adobe Reader and pdf files. Some users have passed to Foxit, but while this may work for some, it is not the universal solution.

Canon printer this print spooler problem
I have a printer canon set up a network for the last 12 months without a problem. Today, when I press print, the document goes to the spooler, but does not print. Only when I restart the computer will display the items. All other computers on the network are not performed. According to the Canon when I called them, they said that I had a problem of print spooler. The spooler is set to automatic and when I manually restart the spooler prints the item. The printer driver has been reinstalled and I am sure this isn't the printer. How can I solve this problem, then the element I want to print, print when I press the button? If the computer is connected to the router by cable, this problem does not occur

I just upgraded from Vista to Win 7 Ultimate. Once installation is complete, I tried to update the drivers and install the latest updates. Everything worked except for HP LaserJet 4 L driver. As a first step, whenever the driver tried to install it, the print spooler service may stop working, and the driver installation failed with error code 800F0246. I then removed everything from the spool directory, rebooted and tried again. This time, the print spooler service has not prevented from working, but the driver still does not work with error code 80070706.
I can't find the information for this error (80070706) anywhere on the web. Any help would be appreciated.
More information: the HP LaserJet 4 L printer is connected via a parallel to a prolific USB docking cable. Windows recognizes the printer as the IEEE-1284 device, but says it needs driver to work.
Update: I was able to manually add the 4L driver using the print server properties dialog box, BUT if I try to add a printer after that, I get "the print processor does not exist. If I try to add a printer without installing the driver, I get ERROR 0 x 00000002.
Everything is running as an administrator. It worked perfectly under Vista.
Thanks for these links, but these proposals did not help nor solve the problems.
After a long and painful journey through the registry, I determined that this workstation was already installed 3rd party software, called "Pharos". Apparently, this software was redirecting the default print processors and was clearly not compatible with Windows 7, although the installation of Win 7 never mentioned a problem of compatibility. Once this software has been removed, and all the remains erased from the registry, there is now no problems with printers or print spooler.
In the future, it would be useful that Microsoft has actually provided certain types of useful information when these accidents occur. Cryptic error numbers and unnecessary event log entries did not provide useful clues.

I could not install my printer because the spooler is stopped. According to Windows help, the problem can be solved by administrative tools. But the biggest problem is: the Administrative Tools folder contains anything other than "Windows SuperShell Modules. The Service order through which is accessible the print spooler service is NOT there. Is there another way I can make the spooler running?
Hi francisco a.sanchez,.
I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.
The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.

Print spooler problem? Uh, maybe?
If I have problems with a printer/plotter that I added to my Vista laptop.
Whenever I have send a file "print", it starts up and about 3 seconds in the file, just tracer stops and the error file in the print queue. I do not know if it is a mistake of the coil, but it shows me nothing about the problem. He stops, then finally the status changes to 'error' and happens again and again. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the driver. This tracer works perfectly on an old Dell XP I use so I know that's not the plotter.
I not even looked to see if WinPrint (print processor) usually caused this kind of problem, but couldn't find anything about it. I'm not super tech savvy. It drives me crazy!

Print Spooler Problems in Windows 7 32 bit
I just upgraded my Dell Inspiron 1526 Vista Home Premium 32-bit, that I never had a problem with, for Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit. All my files and programs were very good, but my printer settings seem to be spoiled. I get the message that the print spooler stops so unexpected and got the error code: 0x000006be. I saw on a forum Vista how to go manually turn on the print spooler and ensure that it was in automatic mode. Then, I started it, and he said that it was automatic, but I tried to install my printer again and it stopped again. Help, please. For now, I'm not so sure that's a good idea to upgrade. And the printer is brand new - it's a Canon PIXMA MP 250. I just bought a few weeks ago and had no problems with it in Vista. Thanks for your suggestions, you can give.

Windows 7 Professional 32 bit. Printer Spooler problem. Cannot print.
I have Windows 7 Professional 32 bit. I did a clean install of Vista.
Basically I'm not able to add a printer, because of the many errors I get.
If I go to the printers-> add printer. I got the error: "Windows can't open add printer." The local print spooler service
does not work. Please restart the spooler or restart the machine.
Then I go to Run-> Services.msc and manually restart and 'Start' the printer spooler.So now the Add Printer dialog box and choose to add a local printer... There is no existing port to choose
go and it does not create a new port. (I have to reboot and start the spooler each time before you can
to successfully open the Add Printer dialog box). (The Printer Spooler as somehow 'stop' shortly after I 'start'.Go back and I try to add a network printer. I see my printer network hosted on the network drive, click on the
printer and I select the printer begins to try to install it, but it quickly produces the error message:
"Windows cannot connect to the printer. The local print spooler service is not running. Please restart the spooler or
restart the machine.I have absolutely no idea what could cause this problem. And Yes, I tried the Support to call Microsoft, the rep had no idea what was causing it.
And the print spooler dependencies are listed below:
