View 2 RepliesI recent purchased a a new computer with Windows 7 Home Premium x64 and a Canon MG5220 Inkjet All-in-One printer. I have setup printer to be wireless (no problems). When I run the setup disk to start downloading the drivers, etc. I get the message that the Print Spooler Service stopped and to restart the computer. I have done that several times. Every time have to restart the spooler in the print spooler properties only to have have it stop a few seconds later when I try to re-run the setup disk. I have deleted the files in the printer and driver files under windowssystem32spoolerdrivers. There is a file called color in the driver filer. I have cleaned up the registry. I have tried the Window Fix.

Now, the printer shows up as needing troubleshooting and will not print. The local print spooler starts, runs about 20 sec. and stops. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the printer.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI use Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. My problem is: Whenever I try to print something (word, pdf, or any other file); printer spooler stops working and when I check the Devices and Printers all the printer drivers seem to be disappeared. I checked the Print Spooler" in the Services tool; and set the "Recovery after subsequent failures" option to Restart the Serviceā. Therefore all the printer drives coma back after 1 minute. However the spooler stops immediately again when the uncompleted printing job starts; hence I can not print anything more than a page. Earlier in this forum, someone posted that Microsoft issued a hotfix for this problem ( hotfix 2388142) which can be downloaded from article: [URL]. I downloaded this hotfix and tried to install, however it gives an error message of: The update is not applicable to your computer and quits installation. I did uninstall and reinstall all the printer drives, but this did not help either.

In the Configuration Manager, I have specified StartupMode = Automatic for the SQL Server service. However, most of the time it doesn't start automatically. I have to execute the Configuration Manager and start it manually.I thought it was a problem with SQL Server and so was seeking help from a SQL forum. All they could suggest is uninstalling and reinstalling SQL Server.Lately I've realized that LogMeIn Hamachi also doesn't always start automatically as it should. That made me think that it might be a Windows problem and not necessarily a SQL problem.In the Services tab of msconfig, both LogMeIn Hamachi and SQL Server are listed and checked; they both happen to be running right now.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am not sure if this problem is due to a user account issue or a printer issue.
I cannot add a printer and all my printers from Windows XP were wiped out. I use this machine for business and I did not want to do a file and settings transfer so I updated to Vista and then updated to Windows 7 from there.
I had a bunch of printers installed including a couple of wierd ones such as a FileCabinet Printer, Adobe Acrobat Writer, CutePDF writer, etc. I don't know if these strange printer drivers affected the upgrade but now I cannot add a printer. I tried services.msc and attempted to start the spooler service, it usually is already running and its on automatic. Its not that, its something deeper than that. I also right clicked the spooler service and made sure the check box was checked for allowing the user to interact with it.
I found a Microsoft post for XP: You cannot add a printer and you receive printer spooler error messages in Windows XP
I'm getting this error, but I can still print locally and from the network.

I did a Windows 7 Repair Install on my HP (G62) laptop, 64 BIT, and installed an HP Deskjet F4180 printer,it went on virtual USB001. Recently, when printing from various PDF files, I cannot print multiple pages of a document. It prints a single random page of the document, then gives printer error, and moves the document into queue, where I have to cancel the job. It seems to work OK in other application documents however. And it even seemed to work for an older small PDF file.Im running the laptop on wireless, with router configured to automatic DHCP, shows 2 devices, the laptop and the wired Desktop, and seems to be running fine. The network is set to Public.I uninstalled all HP programs, drivers, and reinstalled the latest full printer driver & software for 64 BIT from HP website. I stopped & restarted the print spooler service.I tried different USB ports, cables, connection steps.I tried HP scan utilities for fixing, and tried Windows Troubleshoot (which temporarily fixes issue for a single print job)Thru printers & devices all printer & USB drivers show up, are updated, & working.In Printer Properties, I tried printing directly to printer setting, but then NOTHING prints at all.As far as I remember the printer worked properly on my desktop, Windows 7, 32 BIT version.I also reinstalled ADOBE PDF, in case its the applications fault SFC /scannow doesnt find a problem Ive done CCleaner, DiskCleanup, CheckDisk, also no Virus, Malware detected thru the AV applications The Event viewer shows ID #602 :The print spooler failed to reopen an existing printer connection because it could not read the configuration information from the registrykeyS-1-5-21-3851181124-22741... Deskjet D4100 series. This can occur if the key name or values are malformed or missing.MS -Windows Print Service, Spooler Operation failed.I looked at the registry keys, but I dont know if they are in fact incorrect, or what to look for, what they should be ?HP support says its most likely a Windows & corrupted file or spooler service & registry (which I doubt because this is a new Repai Install !) Also, with spooler bypass it doesnt print.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a windows system that is using networked printers of various types and sometimes when the user goes to print, it will not work because the printer spooling service turns itself off. I need to know why this is happening and how to prevent this from happening. It doesnt seem to be a driver problem because they have been uninstalled and reinstalled in compatibility mode and didnt work.

The other will print when the printer is first added, then it will stop printing after awhile. Deleting the printer and re-adding it solves the problem for a short while.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to sort out issues with my Windows 7 machine and want to disable/set to manual services that I know are not needed, but every time I have done this in the past (a while ago now) I invariably run into an issue where I've inadvertently disabled a service that was needed by something, and I end up scratching my head (as all of my hair falls out around this point) and enabling everything just to sort it..
Is there any utility that anyone is aware of that lets you toggle service status, with the option to reset to default or reset to last status, while showing a list of services that I've changed?
I can't seem to word it properly for a search engine to find relevant results, and find usually specific services and not something I'm hoping exists.
I wish the Services.msc mmc had a checkbox or some sort of flag to show altered services so you could sort them by that, which would help a lot, but it doesn't.
I have a problem with downloading a file above roughly 80MB it just stops I tried chrome,firefox and opera and nothing works. On Firefox and Chrome the download just stops on Opera the speed changes to unknown and it stops downloading.I don't have a wireless connection I use modem and my net connection should be okay since on my old comp with same net it worked without problem.

After a lot of trouble cloning a new C drive to an SSD, Outlook, along with a lot of other software, began acting strangely. Everything has pretty much been resolved except for the Outlook problem.
For no reason I can isolate, Outlook will suddenly close, giving the message that it had to close and it will now try to retrieve my data. It does so, unless I was in the middle of composing an email - that will be gone! Sometimes, instead of closing, it freezes and says application not responding.
I checked the disk for errors using scan now and it's fine. I've run memtest and it's fine. I've run in safe mode and it just shut down with no comments. In working my way through suggestions on this board, I just ran Sysinternals Process Explorer until the error occurred and went back to normal. In looking at Process Explorer, I'm afraid the actual data is overwhelming to me. However, I'll attach everything I have.

I am using Windos 7 Ultimate (x64). I am using internet via LAN (DSL connection). I am really very much concerned of the security of my Notebook. I have been experiencing a problem for, approximately, 2 weeks. Now the problem is , that in "Network and Sharing Center > Advanced Sharing settings", "File and Printer sharing" options turns on automatically upon restart ( or i think it turns on also when I disconnect my Internet connection).
Now, I don't want it turned on. I am tired of turning it off again and again. There is this day I turn it off, then the next day, I just verify if it's turn on or not, and what I see is that it is enabled. How? I didn't do that? Nobody uses this Notebook except me.
How do i turn the spooler on

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a laptop running Win 7 32-bit. I configured a network printer, which is an HP Deskjet 720 that is connected to an XP machine and shared. That worked fine. But I just purchased a new 64-bit desktop, and I can't print to that network printer. I can install the printer, and the status shows it's available/ready. But when I try to print a test page, nothing happens. When I check the document status, I get a message saying that the print spooler needs to be started. I've restarted it several times, but it still doesn't work. I've searched the forum and Googled this problem. Lots of users seem to have this same issue. I've tried all suggestions, but nothing works. The spooler is set to automatically start, and the restart time after error is zero. I decided that I'd try replacing the printer driver. But when I go into Control Panel and look at printer properties, the Advanced tab where I should be able to update the drive is all grayed out. So I'm stuck.

View 7 Replies View RelatedIt has been a while since I have been here. I am sure my PC has some hidden Registry problem, but I cannot find it. Hardware: HP 8440P, Windows 7 64 bit.
MacAffee found no viruses, but of course my kid was playing on the machine and I am sure he clicked "yes" on some webpage.
The Registry for the Print Spooler keeps shutting down. When I attempt to print from Micorsoft Word, it shows my HP1018 printer as not really being a printer. I checked the Print Spooler and attempted a restart. It restarts fine, but then when I attempt to print from Word (or any MS office program) the Print Spooler shuts down. Same is true with adobe acrobat reader.
My guess is something corrupted the Registry to screw with me.
I have a problem since I have installed windows 7, on each startup i get the message "Spooler SubSystem App has stopped working", i couldn't find any answer on the forum yet, on google the only solutions were for vista, and doens't seem to work... does anyone had issues with it?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am using a Windows 7 Home premium (x64) laptop and a Canon MP560 printer. Anytime I try to print from my laptop to my printer (through a wireless network), an error pops up which reads: "Windows cannot connect to the printer. The local print spooler service is not running. Please restart the spooler or restart the machine." Sometimes, the printer disappears from my computer (I don't delete it, it just vanishes) and when I try to add printer I get the message: "Windows can't open add printer. The local print spooler service is not running. Please restart the spooler or restart the machine."I know it is not a problem with the printer as my husband's laptop is printing fine. Also, if I right click on the printer and try to print a test page from my computer it prints perfectly fine. However, I am unable to print anything from MS Word or the internet.
I have tried:
- System restore, twice.
- Manually starting the print spooler (in Services) but it stops running as soon as I send anything to print.
- Deleting and reinstalling the drivers for the printer.

Today on start up, noticed the machine was a little sluggish, but after a short while appeared to be normal. I tried to print a document and Windows 7 said that I had no printers installed? Looked at the Devices and Printer screen and only two were there with yellow triangles. Tried to do a printer install, Windows 7 said the spooler was not running. Went to services and enabled the print spooler, the printers showed back up on the D&P screen, initiated a print and same response. P&D screen showed no printers, did the enable of the spooler still no luck. Tried a reboot, same problem, did a recovery back a couple of days, it was successful but problem still remains after a print command. Did the normal virus scan, malware thing, now I am stumped. I remember several months ago 10-12 that I had to go into the registry and change something with this exact behavior, but that remedy escapes me now.
View 2 Replies View RelatedNew computer build with fresh install of Windows 7 (64) on formatted hard drive. I have no printers installed and am allowing window to download all updates. I can't install any printers as windows print spooler service is not loaded. If I go to services, and attempt to start the service, I get an error message that says "Windows could not start the Print spooler service on Local Computer" "Error 1053; The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion".
All dependant services are loaded and running. I have restored the computer to an earlier point and was able to determine the spooler services are running. I continue to allow updates and at some point the service becomes corrupted again. I check in services.msc after every restart. I can't seem to figure out what's corrupting the spooler service. I've even gone as far as to re-install a system image created just after all motherboard divers where installed. The service appears to be working fine and during the process of doing Windows updates,after a random restart, it's not working again. Once it stops working it never comes back until I do a system restore.
I just tried to print, only to find out the printing menu from MS word wasn't opening. I checked the print spooler service, and it's stopped. When I try to start it, I get the error 1503 message.
I've tried the following:
- Manually start it. Made sure the RPC service is running (yes it is)
- System restore to a date I believe it worked
- sfc /scannow (doesn't find anything)
- some other cmd command which had "= rpcss" in it
- Some said .NET update may do something, didn't
I saw something else about renaming .mui to .exe and the original spooler .exe to .bak. Tried that and the service just reported it couldn't find the files, so I reverted that.I can't recall off the top of my head what the files names specifically are, but the two files that are the spooler (spoolersv.exe and spoolersv.exe.mui?) are within the correct directory in Windows. I really am at a lost, and classes started this week for me so I'm drained right now... its tunneling engine service would do the same thing (error 1503 out of nowhere), so I had to reinstall that and add something in its registry directory. Easier using that for Sven Coop and Synergy Coop?
I am facing Print Spooler Services Stopped in Windows 7 and i'v done all the possibilities with win 7 like manually starts services many times but it again gets stopped.
clean its registry but not resolved applying some patches but not resolved install all updates of win 7 but not resolved delete SPOOLER folder;s file but not resolved
It always prompting me the popup windows " No printer found or print spooler services not running"
