Questions of queue printer after clearing by running cmd prompt

I'm dealing with an old xp computer based.  I work in a chemistry lab and some of our instruments are systems of inherited types.  Out of everything I just this morning and I have a paper stuck in the print queue.  Not really big a deal, but I was not in a place to turn to reset the entire system (you will need to disable analytic system also although it will not re-sync to pc, unless all the pieces are propelled to the bottom to the top at the same time).  Then I typed and ran the standard .cmd guest found on the site of tech from microsoft here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946737

The problem that I use here is that a step in the last paragraph is not actually happens.  The command is on a constant loop, creating the problem of the printer is not not able to connect to the system and allowing the impression to continue.

So, I did this several times on the systems of the House over the years and has never had any sort of problem ever.  This isn't exactly a disastarous near future problem but certainly is soemthing that I need to fix in the medium and long term.

I even tried the most obvious solutions such disconnect, hard reset, etc. as well as just to add the printer again setting the copy default.  All that serves to do is allow me to create documents printed in our analysis software, but the command to actually have the printer put some ink on the page is ignored.  He goes to the queue, but it is there for the moment, 35 minutes.

A reflection as to why this might be happening and how I can fix this problem?

I can get you some specs if you need, such as the version of windows, etc.  All I can tell you offhand knowledge is that it is a very old system.  The printer used is a HP LaserJet P1006 and the instrument is fixed to it is approximately 27 years.  The computer is a Dell Optiplex 755 I have beileve generated somewhere in the area from 2006-2008.

Note If anyone QC of Microsoft coming on this post:

SignIn upward for a microsoft after that account was a nightmare.  Took me to create accounts with two email addresses, more than 35 trying to connect until the password is recognized and I have the key to time (not) sent to my phone at least 3 or 4 times beofore I could finally check my email.  Let's not even start on how this site basically does not work in chrome which is my preferred corporate browser and IE is troubled and dysfunctional with slow loading times.   Just an end-user of entry to be considered.

Thank you all.

I don't know what you mean by that:

The command is on a constant loop, creating the problem of the printer is not not able to connect to the system and allowing the impression to continue.

but there is no real need to create a command script as described in this article.  Just open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK) and type the commands in hand:

net stop spooler {press Enter}
del/q '% windir%\system32\spool\PRINTERS\*.*' {press Enter}
net start spooler {press Enter}
exit {press Enter}

FYI, the above /Q switch is optional: it means "go ahead and delete without asking confirmation to Yes/No."  In addition, the above command removes just all files in this folder - but there should not be any files other than the files *.shd and *.spl anyway.

Enter orders manually must work or give you an error message more significant than executing the script.

Microsoft has created one of its automated FixIt tools to remedy this situation (this may or may not be the one that appears when you go to the article you quoted):
FixIt 9662904 ("Lighting mode" = do not check the box to restore the values by default the spooler).  You can read about this tool and what it here--> http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2012/02/24/microsoft-fixit-for-printing.aspx?Redirected=true

    HeyPieter_Belgium

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I'd love to help you with printing problems you encounter. Although I am not sure what is cause of the error of communication, or of poor quality, I suspect it has something to with the pilot and the recent upgrade. I suggest to uninstall the software, remove the Chuck from the properties of the server, and then put it back using the printer Installation Wizard. I will list the links and instructions below to help you in each of these steps.

    HP printers - uninstalling the software of the printer (Windows)

    Remove the driver from the print server properties:

    1. in the folder "devices and printers".

    2. choose "print server properties.

    • Win XP - with no printer selected, click 'File' then 'server properties '.
    • Windows Vista - with no printer selected, press 'Alt' and then click 'file' then 'server properties '.
    • Windows 7/8, 8.1 and 10 -select any printer in the "Devices and printers" folder and click on "Print server properties" above.

    3. click on the "Drivers" tab at the top of the window "properties of the print server.

    4. choose the printer that you want to uninstall, and then click 'remove '.

    5. choose "Remove driver only.

    6. the next screen will give a warning, letting you know that the removal of the driver package will remove it from the system. Click 'Yes' to say are you sure you want to do.

    If documents are stuck in the spooler to print, you see an error, cancel all documents waiting in the print queue or try restart the spooler to print, and then try to delete the driver from 'Print server properties' again. If she will not always remove the sachet, restart the computer and the printer should correct this error "in use" and allow the driver to be removed.

    Hi Larry,

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I will certainly help the question of fixing.

    To help you suggest several steps to solve the problem, I would appreciate if you could answer the following questions:

     

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

    2. did you of recent changes made to your computer before the show?

    3. is specific to printing an E-mail question?

    The print spooler is a system of 32 services in the Microsoft Windows operating system. He is responsible for the management of jobs that have been sent to the printer or print from a network server. With the print spooler, the user can achieve a greater control over the print queue because the print spooler service allows the user to dispose of print jobs pending or to set priorities for projects.

    Most of the time, the print spooler service works very well. Unfortunately, the opportunities will arise when the print spooler fails and you receive the dreaded error print spooler and print becomes impossible.

    Please follow the methods and mark the question below:

    Method 1:

  • Spoolsv.exe has 99% of the cpu when I turned off the printer after printing.

    Original title: spoolsv.

    I recently installed a new printer Lexmark Pro715.  Everything works fine, no problems with printing, but as soon as I put off the printer after printing, spoolsv.exe takes 99% CPU.  If I leave the printer in mode 'sleep', the problem is, but I do not often print, I prefer to turn off completely.  There is nothing in the print queue, everything else seems normal.  I can use the Task Manager to stop it, but this isn't a good solution in the long term.  I run MS Update and uninstalled and reinstalled the printer, with no effect.  It's driving me crazy.  I have Windows XP Home Edition SP3.

    From what I've read on the Internet about the print spooler using 99 to 100%, Norton is also sometimes involved as a contributing factor to a runaway print spooler for some people (where my request).

    IIRC, people would set their Norton to start a scan and when it was made, the print spooler has run amok at 100%:

    "Because I have Norton Antivirus, do a system scan every Friday night that I happened to see that the value SPOOLSV. EXE is using almost 100% of the CPU of the morning Saturday. It's the only time that it happens, so I simply stop the process in the SERVICES window, and life is good. I don't know why Norton Antivirus it triggers during the scanning process that I couldn't find anything on the Symantec relating to this site. »

    If the problem resurfaces surface, using abduction special tools on their website, you can uninstall your Norton and view the appearance of things without him - you can always reinstall again once, right?

    I disagree with Norton in general for its CPU and memory hogging and known interference with other XP processes (such as the restoration of the system), so I'd keep which in mind if the problem returns.

    A few years ago, I used to like Norton correct, but will never go back or recommend it.  Microsoft Security Essentials with it's lower overhead and footprint and some regular on the analyses at the request of the MBAM and SAS should hold your own system based on your surfing habits.  Your system will reward you with an improvement in the overall performance of the system as well.

    I can tell you that no single AV tool seems to know everyting so it is safe to use several respectable scanning tools.  Norton certainly doesn't know everything.

  • Brother HL-2240 printer will not print after installing Windows.

  • Since the installation of Firefox, I can no longer post to a group of goole - even after clearing cache / cookies as suggested

    I can connect to the uk d-i-y group, but when I try a post an error message / try the message later. After clearing the cache / cookies as Google indicates that the message is that the application needs updating - refresh page. Tried to re-Assembly of the group but no change.

    Sorry for the delay in my response.

    I know that certain features of Google are not compatible with other browsers, but those who are for the most of the features of Gmail and Google Drive. You should always be able to access your Google Group.

    There is the chance that an add-on or plugin installed in Firefox is the origin of the problem. To learn, you can try the Mode without failure of Firefox.

    Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables some settings and disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

    (If you are using an additional theme, place you in default theme.)

    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Mode without failure of Firefox in the Help menu by clicking on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item:

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.
