• Print Spooler service will not be "started."

  Running WinXP Pro with all the latest updates.  The Print Spooler Service continues to stop on its own.  Ran a repair twice installation and that seems to fix the problem for a while.  But the print spooler service continues to shut down.  Do not know why.

  Run the hp print diagnostic utility to fix it to the top.

  Hi RobynGP,
   
  This may occur if the print spooler requires other services, and these services are not running. To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
   
  1. in Services, right-click on print spooler and then click Properties.
  
  2. click the Dependencies tab. The first box list all system services that must work for the print spooler start. These are dependencies.
  
  3 make a note of each service, click OK, and restart each service on which the print spooler is dependent, if the service is not already started. If a service is not started, right-click, click Properties, and then make sure that the startup type is automatic.
   
  Let us know if this helped.

  The main problem is caused by corrupted printer drivers, you will need to check with your printer manufacturer for

• I want to add a printer, but get the error message "print spooler service does not work."

  I can't print from my computer.  This has happened with no other visible defects on the computer or the printer.

  When I use the printer in case of problem, and hit the 'add printer' link, I get the error message "print spooler service is not."

  "I did a search on"print spooler"but got no result

  Duane

  Often, but not always, the symptoms you describe are caused by a corrupt print job stuck in the queue or a damaged printer driver.  However before you clean things up, on general principles, that you can download, install, update and run full scans with each of these two free programs:

  AntiMailware MalwareBytes
  SUPERAntiSpyware

  Do not operate the two scans simultaneously.  Each will take a long time, so start it and then go do something else for a while.

  Cleaning of printers

  NOTE: If after completing step has the print spooler is not always running after you launched the command "net start spooler", you will not be able to follow all the steps in "First Article".  Instead, go to the other link and download and get and use the utility 'cleanspl' such as described here.

  If the suggestions below do not resolve your problem, after back and don't forget to include the following information:

  • The version of Windows you have, including service pack (start > run > winver > OK)
  • The brand and model of printer you have (includes the manufacturer, model and model number, as in HP Deskjet 6800)
  • How the printer is connected to the computer (parallel, USB, network, wireless, etc.).
  • It happened just before this symptom started
  • What application antivirus you have and if your subscription is up to date and has been maintained continuously
  • The full text of the error messages related to printing, without paraphrasing

  
  

  A. Clean on print jobs pending

  • Open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK)
  • Type the following in the black command prompt window, and then press ENTER after each line

  net stop spooler
  del/q '% windir%\system32\spool\PRINTERS\*.* '.
  net start spooler
  output

  B. clean the old printer drivers and install the latest drivers by using the directions in One Article.  If you have (or had) a Lexmark printer, follow the instructions on the following site before installing the new drivers, as explained in its first Article: http://members.shaw.ca/bsanders/CleanPrinterDrivers.htm

• How can I fix the error message "the print spooler service does not work."?

  All printer drivers that I had loaded do not work or have disappeared.  After you download the printer drivers, I got the error message: "operation could not be performed.  The print spooler service is not running. "I have Windows XP.  I need to print now!

  To start the print spooler service, click Start > all programs > Accessories > run. In the run box type in services.msc. In the Windows Services window right-click on print spooler and select open. You will then see the options "Start automatically", and then on the button 'Start Service'. Click on those and then click apply then OK. Who should start the print spooler service, however, if you get an error message, see the link below for more information.
