Printer status window interface stopped working

I'm unable to print information from my pc because I get a message saying, "the printer status window interface stopped working.  -What it means and how to fix it?

Hi Doris,

1. What is the brand and model of your printer?

2. remember you make recent changes made to the computer that could have caused this problem?

3. how you have connected the printer to the computer?

Try to run the printer Troubleshooter.

  • The printer status window Interface stopped working and was closed. How can I fix it?

    When I try to print I get the following message from Microsoft Windows: Printer Status window Interface stopped working and was closed. A problem with the application to stop functioning properly. Windows will notify you if a solution is available.

    I have never received a Windows solution.  Once I have selected an email or other document to print and then click on print, nothing happens.  I then log out of windows and then reopen in an and the document will be printed.

    How can this problem be fixed?

    Hi all!

    This is usually resolved with a driver updated from the manufacturer.
    I highly recommend updating the driver to see if that takes care of the issue. If you need help, find the driver for your printer, please provide the make and model and I will do my best to find the right one for you.
    Thank you for using Microsoft Answers!

    1. on the Windows taskbar, click the Start button, select Control Panel, and then click Printers. The Printers folder opens.

    2. look for a green checkmark beside your printer (Dell A960 printer). This check box indicates which product is the default printer for Windows.

    Also, make sure that the printer is not paused or offline.

    1. on the bar menu print queue, click on the printerand then locate suspend printing and printer use offline items in the menu.

    2. ensure that there is no check box next to each item. If a check mark appears next to each item, click to clear it.

  • Printing status window Interface has stopped working

    I have a new computer with Windows 8 and an old printer Dell720.  I found a driver and the printer works with the new computer.  The printer was working without any problems, when I received the message "the Print status window Interface has stopped working".  I also had a "Low Ink" pop-up window.

    Any help to solve this problem would be appreciated.

    OK, I found a way to deal with my problem.  Apparently the problem centered around the printer sends a message to the computer that the ink cartridge is low on ink.  I said to the computer I installed a new print cartridge (but I do not actually have) and now the printer works.

    Hello

    BCCode: 117 is generally a problem of display driver (video) If you need to update (check the system machine
    and the sites of the manufacturer of the device. You will need to remove and reinstall your video card a PC and not
    edge. Perhaps a replacement card is necessary.

    If necessary you can perform in SafeMode with network - repeatedly F8 tap that you start.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system. For
    each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver, description,.
    version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your
    video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this
    cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
    This will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party with their
    own the software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
    (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the BIOS, Chipset and software)
    updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - tab drivers version you install actually shows up. This
    because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a
    pilot - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW on device at the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER - manually check by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  • Windows Defender stop working after the malicious software removal tool

    I ran windows software and after this removal tool, my windows Defender stopped working says its turned off, but when I try to turn it on nothing happens

    This problem can occur because another security application is used or the Windows Defender service has stopped, or components of Windows Defender are corrupt.

    You install any new programs recently? Windows Defender is not designed to protect against the extent of malware. If programs like Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Defender both run, your system may experience degradation in performance and other problems caused by the conflict of two services providing real-time protection at the same time. I recommend that you keep the Defender off if another application of security protection is running.

    If no similar security application is installed, I suggest that we have follow these steps to resolve the problem:

    2. double-click on the service "Windows Defender".
    3. click on the 'general' tab. Make sure the "Startup Type" is "automatic". Then please click on "Start" under "Status of Service" to start the service.

    If the problem is not resolved, please refer to step 2:

    Step 2: Save the associated DLL files
    ========================
    1. click on start, type "cmd" (without the quotes) in the box start the search. Right click on CMD listed above and click 'run as administrator '.

    2. in the command prompt, type the following and press ENTER to each order:

    regsvr32 atl.dll

    regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\wuapi.dll
    regsvr32 softpub.dll

    3. close the command prompt, and then run Windows Defender.
