Printer spooler will not start error 1053

Hello

I got a Lexmark X 4550 printer installed on my Windows 7 x 64 inspiron for a few months now. Steeplechase the printer would not print that's never happened before. When I went to devices it says there was a problem with the printer and she needed troubleshooting. The store could not find a solution. I found a few fixes suggested online and you have tried without success. However, I discover that the printer spooler has been arrested. When I tried to restart services it came with an error that says: -.

Windows cannot start the service on the local computer printer spooler

Error 1053: The service did not demand launch or timely control.

I checked that it is configured to run automatically, and when I checked the dependencies that I discovered that the remote procedure call was arrested and the manual value. I have reset automatically and it started successfully. This did not however fix the printer spooler error.

I uninstalled the lexmark software and tried to delete the printer driver - this has not helped either.

I also tried the following: -.

Open a command prompt window

the control key;
dependent on the spooler of sc config = RPCSS

Restart the print spooler

This did not help also.

I tried the list in the folder of the coil of compensation, but there's nothing in it.

I totally ideas, suggestions on how to fix this? I think that Windows had a fix for this problem on XP and Vista, but I can't find one for windows 7. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

James (and all those who have contributed so far),

I found this offer on the Microsoft Answers site forum.  It's by a guy named encro.

Let me know if it works, I don't have access to a printer for the moment.  I'd be more interested in your results, whether it is successful or not.

The solution: get the spooler to start!

This seems to be a very common problem on Windows 7, caused by a recent update 'Important' within the late March/early April. I found the fix for this while working on a clients machine and noticed something abnormal in that the print spooler was not actually the print spooler it is why it wouldn't start. Now that our team have set about 20 machines using this process, I'm confident enough, that this is workaround until a future WSUS update corrects this correctly. It's still speculation at this point because log files have not really brought to this day a lot of troubleshooting help this and it can be not linked to a KB from Windows Update.

I'm still trying to determine the real Windows Update update that caused the problem to inform Microsoft of bug but the problem goes something like this:

Determine if this is the case on your computer.

Verify the existence of spoolsv.exe.org and spoolsv.exe in %windir%\system32 (C:\Windows\System32)

If both exist then it is likely the following problem.

Compare the spoolsv.exe file size

Sometimes the real spoolsv.exe is called spoolsv.exe.org [545KB] and instead of spoolsv.exe place will actually be a file 41KO posing as the print spooler. I guess the system saved the original spooler at a given time and accidentally replaced it with something else. Spoolsv.exe should be the file 545KO at this point.

Correction of the problem

Step 1: Spoolsv.exe and rename it spoolsv.bak

Step 2: Spoolsv.exe.org and rename spoolsv.exe

Rename spoolsv.exe.org here is a bit more tricky because it requires to change the property file from TrustedInstaller to the administrator group and giving the full group write permissions for the file. Without doubt, this has security implications, it is recommended to restore the permissions once the file is renamed.

By changing the property of the file from TrustedInstaller to administrator then activation full of change to the administrator group, you can exchange files by the name change and correct this problem.

I usually and rename spoolsv.exe spoolsv.bak and then rename spoolsv.exe.org to become the real spoolsv.exe.

Step 3:

Start the print spooler via Services (services.msc) or at the command prompt by using net start spooler.

    If you start up and down if you think you can perform these tasks
    even if you don't understand them.

    Make a Restore Point before you start, you can return to where you were like that
    If necessary. (Although to be honest, a serious mistake made by those who is unlikely even if you)

  • Spoolsv.exe - local print spooler does not start

    Dear all

    My local print spooler will not start. After a recent Windows update all my devices when removed, which was a printer. I run the malware and anti spyware software on my PC, remove no matter what malware/spyware, but I can not yet install the printer I have.

    The message I get is "Windows cannot add a printer. The spools of local printer service is not running. Please restart the spooler or restart the machine. I tried to restart the spooler but this does not work, I get an error 1068. I rebooted the machine several times; all to nothing does not. The 'service' shows 2 HTTP and RPC dependencies. My understanding is that the only dependency should be the PRC, but I can't change the file. Short to restore PC to factory settings and start all over again, I'm lost. Is there anything else I can try before taking this reconstruction?

    Your

    Doug

    At a prompt (run as administrator), run the following:

    dependent on the spooler of sc config = RPCSS

    Note the space between = and RPCSS.

    This removes any dependencies on the spooler and restore the default RPCSS dependence.

    One of the problems with viruses and malware is that there is no real way to know what exactly it is they changed on your system, the more benign virus may be easy to remove but never pests morphing and a constant flow of new pests pushed one never knows how a machine is compromised.  After the withdrawal of an infection, you should always ask yourself if you can really trust the machine, if you don't know if the answer is no, the only course of action is to flatten and rebuild the machine.   Disk imaging/cloning utilities are perfect for this, they can help you get your machine running in a minimum of time and upward.

  • 1053 error Code Print spooler could not start

    My print spooler does not start and I get the error code 1053

    Hi troy,

    I've personally encountered this error and had to reinstall my system, but try this:

    • Simultaneously press the keys Ctrl + Win and should bring up a run dialog box
    • Type C:\System32\Spool\Printers in the Run dialog box and a windows Explorer should appear
    • In the folder, delete all the files in the folder

    This will delete the documents you have sent to the printer. Then, you start the "Print spooler" service in this way:

    • Simultaneously press the keys Ctrl + Win and should bring up a run dialog box
    • Type net start "print spooler".

    Try this and let me know how it goes.

    Any other advice would be greatly appreciated...

    Hello yan_dao69,

    I suggest that you try the methods below to solve the problem.

    Method 1:

    I suggest that you run the printer troubleshooter. This will automatically diagnose and fix printing problems:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-printer-Troubleshooter

    Ideally, this would set the print spooler service issues.

    Method 2:

    I suggest that you disable the Antivirus software temporarily and verify if you are able to start the print spooler service. You can check the link that will give you information disable antivirus below:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

    Note: Please make sure that you enable the antivirus software after the test to keep your computer protected.

    Method 3:

    Check the dependency of the spooler services in the registry.

    a. Click Start, type regedit in the search box and press ENTER.

    b. look for, and then click the following registry key:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Spooler

    c. right-click on spooler, click Export, save a backup file on your desktop.

    NOTE: If an unforeseen problem be encountered after changing the registry, please double-click on the file to restore the backup.

    d. in the details pane, if the DependOnService value shows values of RPCSS and other key, right-click DependOnService and then click on edit.

    e. in the value data box, delete the other keys and then click OK.

    f. exit the registry editor.

    Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

  • Windows 7 printer spooler does not start

    just my printer spooler does not start in Windows 7.  I received a message that the spooler wasn't running when I tried to use it today.  I used the printer for a few days. "net start spooler" fails from the administrator command prompt.  I checked that the CPP is running.

    I installed SP 1 yesterday with success, but I went back to the restore point, but still, the spooler does not start.

    The system acts as the spooler is missing.

    How can I solve this problem?

    Thank you

    I would like to check the status of the Services.

    Click on the Start button and select Control Panel, administrative tools, Services. Locate bridge end RPC Mapper in the list. Check that he started and that the startup type is automatic. If it is not set to automatic, right-click and select Properties, general tab. There is a box after the startup type. The options are available in a menu drop-down by clicking on the down arrow to the right of the box. Make the change and click apply and then click OK. Restart the computer and verify if it has started.

    Repeat the procedure for DCom server process Launcher.

    Hi I have a HP Photosmart C4783 and all of a sudden, I can't print more.

    I tried to restart the coil, but it's just for me that error 1053 and some blah on demand does not in a timely fashion.

    I went into System 32 to ensure that spool.exe is still there and it is.

    I am running windows 7 64 bit and all updates, including the printer are up-to-date.

    Everything was fine until a few days ago and I have no new hardware or software installed.

    It's really boring it would be great if someone has an answer that does not include trawl by a thousand other items that suggest the reboot of the coil.

    Thank you guys.

    If you get error 1053 when print spooler starts, it is usually a problem with the operating system itself.  However, I have something I would like you to try as a way to get the spooler to start.

    • Open the command run by selecting it from the start menu or by pressing the Windows key (to the left of the alt) + R

    • Type services.msc and press enter

    • Scroll down and double click on print spooler

    • Select the tab log

    • Uncheck the Allow service to interact with desktop

    • Click apply

    • Select the general tab for the print spooler, and then select start

    This becomes the print spooler to start successfully?

    I use Vista Ultimate on older Satellite M70 and I can print all my Word documents.

  • Printer spooler does not start

    I spent hours on the phone with Kodak tries to install my new all in one printer that is compatible with Vista, but we cannot get installed it.

    I think it's maybe because I can't start my printer spooler.  It is set to automatic, but the status is empty.  When I try to right click to start manually, I get an error 1068: the dependency service or group could start.

    Can someone help with this problem?

    What the HTTP service. Is it does not work?

    This is for XP. For Vista, the value is a Reg_Multi_SZ of RPCSS and HTTP. He
    shows in my regedit, when you change the value, on lines separate.

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    ===============================

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
    Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
    the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
    the correct registry entries for your car.

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
    as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
    the parameters.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\0001\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    You can probably find more info here and maybe even the exact registry for your CD/DVD settings
    drive from someone with the same model.

    Use DevManView to locate the CD/DVD in the registry (be careful and do a prior Restore Point)
    nothing change) - find the DevManView device and then make a right click on it free in RegEdit.

    DevManView - free - an alternative to the standard Windows Device Manager, which displays all the
    devices and their properties in flat table, instead of the tree viewer

    I hope this helps.
