It would probably help if you reinstalled Windows, but this is a drastic measure and almost certainly useless to take in response to this error.

When you restart the print spooler, it immediately turning off or only when you try to print?

Assuming that you have an up-to-date antivirus application and have recently scanned withMalwareBytes Antimalware and SUPERAntiSpyware as you are reasonably confident that your computer is free of malware, the most likely reasons for the print spooler not running are a corrupt print job stuck in the queue or a damaged printer driver.

  • My printer will not remove the last print job

    My printer will not remove the last print job and does not meet what I already found on internet support

    Hello

    If you haven't done so already, try the following.

    From the desktop, hold down the Windows key and press R.  In the run window, type services.msc and press to enter.  Scroll down to the print spooler service, right click and select Properties, then click the Stop button.  Now search for C:\Windows\System32\Spool\PRINTERS, then delete the work inside this folder - you may need to click a command prompt to get the authority to open the PRINTERS folder.

    Restart the computer and you should find that the document has been deleted.

  • Reference Dell 926 printer will not print after installing Windows 7

    After the upgrade to Windows 7 my 926 printer will not print. I followed the suggestions found here (unplug the printer on the wall, remove the brick, low load patch R166248 to delete the printer, the latest driver to load, R146832 dated 26/01/07, reboot). Restarts, driver going through complete installation process then I get an error at the end of the process, "the Dell Photo 926 Printer printer driver is not installed". I did this several times. In addition, I restarted the spooler to print several times. No luck. Additional suggestions on how I can get my 926 to work with Windows 7?

    Greg,

    I think that we all regret our first wedding, well most of us.

    Removal of print jobs is a way of really nice to get rid of your documents. After you restart your computer, you should be able to run the fix, Manual printer removal driver and restart once more. Try it to install the Vista drivers in compatibility mode, I used Vista SP2.

    Right click on the file setup.exe, on the left, click Properties, compatibility of the left click. Change Vista compatibility. Then, install the appropriate drivers. You will be asked when connect (printer)

    To install the drivers, sometimes the file decompresses and does nothing. You must find the setup.exe file, right-click on it, then on the left click on run as administrator *.

    Hi rkusa1,

    Thank you for using Microsoft Windows forum

    However, you may want to follow these steps.

    1. right click on your quickbooks start exe file and open properties.

    2. on the Compatibility tab, select the compatibility mode and run this program in compatibility mode for Windows using the following link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows (only if she worked very well with former Windows operating system)

    4. start - devices and printers - add a printer - add a local printer - create a new port - local port and name it QBD_PDF.

    5. Choose install AMYUNI Technologies - Amyuni Document Converter 300 (click the button update windows if it is not on your list).

    6. If windows detects you already have a driver and then choose to replace the current driver. The printer name Quickbooks PDF Converter - do not share the printer - NOT set as the default printer. Finishing

    7. start right click - devices and printers - printer QB, choose printer - properties and go to the Advanced tab.

    8. remove the checkmarks in the 4 elements with square next to them (lower part of the screen) boxes, and then select "Print directly to the printer" press OK to close the window.

  • My PS6520 wireless printer will not print when she goes to sleep, any idea? Thank you

    My PS6520 wireless printer will not print when she goes to sleep, any idea? Thank you

    Hi 464544,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I understand once that your HP Photosmart 6520 starts in mode "sleep" you cannot send a print job, it does not automatically standby upward.

    Please take a look here:

    The printer into standby mode after five minutes of inactivity to help reduce energy consumption. The sleep time can be changed from the control panel. The printer will wake up mode 'sleep' to print when a print job is sent to it.

    However, the auto power off feature must be disabled. Auto Power-Off turns off the printer completely, you must use the power button to turn the printer back on. You can change the setting Auto Power-Off from the control panel. configuration -Source

    Menu Configuration > other Menus > Eco > auto shut-off > off

    I hope this helps.

  • Printer will not connect via USB

    HP lj1022 printer will not connect not not via the USB port after the installation of the new driver upgrade hp lj1020/1022 for Windows 7 (64-bit). Driver seems to install properly until the moment where he is asked to connect the USB cable. Then he hangs up. HP lj 1020 printer appears in the display to the dashboard as the default printer. Computer recognizes the printer as hp printer lj1022 but in another "device not specified Panel when and only when the printer is on and the USB cable is connected." When printing, nothing ever comes from queue.

    Diagnosis is only that something is stuck in the queue and remove the task from the queue, but does not. Diagnostic shows no problem.

    The lj1022 printer accepts data from two other computers, as well on Windows xP and using the same cables. Three other USB ports have been tested on the new Windows 7 computer without results. The USB ports on the Windows 7 computer accept keyboards, mouse and flash memories wireless dongle without problem. The Windows 7 computer also sends data to a printer wireless with no problems.

  • HP Officejet 6500 a: printer will not connect to the wireless network.

    I got this HP printer for a while and it worked fine.  Our old router is out and we had to get a new one.  Installed perfectly and printer continued to work properly.  The password for the router was ridiculous, that's why I changed it to something much more simple to remember.  Since then, my printer will not connect to wireless internet.  I have a ~ and reinstalled the printer but still have the same problem.  I thought maybe to try the former password would, but who does not work either.

    Anyone has any ideas that might help before chuck it and go and get a new one altogether?

    Thank you.

    Easy things first.  Turn off the router and the printer.  Turn on the router and wait 3 minutes.  Turn on the printer and see if it connects to your router.  Status?

    If no joy, temporarily disable all security in the router.  Now try to connect the printer to your SSID not guaranteed without password.  Status now?

    If OK, go back and add WPA2-AES with your simple password.  Status now?

  • E-all-in-one HPOfficejet 8600Pro printer will not now speak to iMac since updates Driver & Maverick

    I just bought a new HP printer and set up on my iMac to print. After a LOT of messing around FINALLY got it works, BUT a day later upgrades arrived to update my iOS X 10.9.3 with a simultaneous upgrade of the software driver for the printer. I duly installed at once – but now, regardless of what I do the printer will not work. The computer can be seen as it is showing ink etc. levels and said he printed and I can print test pages, but it has not allowed me to print from Word, Excel, Web or PDF!  I tried to uninstall the printer drivers and reinstall those of the HP Web, which I suppose would be the 'old' - but still no luck. I need this job and am close to tears - any help would be appreciated. I also tried deleting and reinstalling Office for Mac... NB it prints beautifully and effortlessly to my husband's PC.

    Welcome to the LAG54 forums,

    I saw your post about not being able to use the printer completely after a few updates. I will do my best to help you with this!

    First, try the following steps:

    1. Mac OS X: how to reset the printing system
    2. Repair disk permissions
    3. Restart your computer
    4. Add the printer: full function and driver-OS X 10.9 Mavericks software

    I hope that does the trick! Let me know the results!

    Have a great Tuesday
