Print Spooler Queue For Few Minutes

Apr 12, 2005

At start of each session first doc from any app prints normally 2nd and subsequent docs stall in print queue for 2 to 3 minutes. Have gone through HP who suggest that problem is with spooler. Can't find any updates on MS sites.

Deleting Document From Print Queue

Apr 30, 2005

I have seen this on multiple printers.Canon S450, HP etc when you go to delete what appears to be a currently printing document out of the printers queue. You can see that it says deleting but it just sits there and never goes away. Then you can't print anything else.You try shutting off the printer, rebooting the machine and it doesn't work.How the heck can you force this document to really be deleted and free up the printer?

Print Jobs Remain In Queue Although Already Printed

Oct 24, 2006

I dont know if i've got this in the right forum but i've got a WinXP Pro Machine so thought i'd try it here.The problem is that my print queue seems to retain the print jobs although the print jobs have already been printed out (i've seen it retain jobs from 5 days ago). I happens from all sorts of programs.My PC is acting a print server (ie, the printer is connected to my PC via Parallel and i have shared my install of this printer).In the print queue, the status indicates "sent to printer" and Pages "x/x - eg 3/3" however the print jobs remains in the queue and do not disappear unless i manually do a "cancel". If i were to turn off and then on the PC, all these print jobs will print out again without any user interaction.So, can anyone tell me if this is a driver issue or is it something to do with the printer or Parallel port configuration.As far as i know, i've got "bi-directional support" selected but i'm still to find out what modes i've got parallel set to eg. EPP or ECP or both.

Print Spooler Not Working

Jul 7, 2007

I have a Gateway PC. I have a Lexmark 7170 printer. When I try to add a printer, I get a message that says the printer spooler service is not running. I tried run->services.msc, selecting printer spooler, and setting startup type to automatic. I then selected dependencies, and got a message that says this service depends on the following: LexBce Server, Remote Procedure Call. What else can I try? I should say that I just had work done on my PC and the Computer Repair Place left it like this.

Printer / Print Spooler Not Working?

Sep 23, 2007

Im running XP Professional, SP 2, on an Intel P3 1Ghz, 512 MB of RAM.I deleted my old Lexmark printer after I installed a new HP. Now my printer wont work. I tried restarting the print spooler and nothing. I checked the dependencies and both boxes are 'GREY' (closed) and show no dependencies listed.Im thinking I deleted some files or file required to operate the spooler/printer? Or is it possobly spyware or something causing this problem? I did perform a registry cleanup after the installation of the new HP printer.

Print Spooler Has Stopped Working

Sep 19, 2007

Im running Windows XP and my HP printer has stopped working. I get an error message regarding the print spooler not working. I go to the 'PRINTERS" folder and it shows that the re is no printer installed. Im wondering if I did something to cause this. I use the free version of Abexo Registry Cleaner as well as Zoftspy SE (purchased version) which I use daily. I have used Ad aware but I've deleted it. A short time ago I did have a Trojan (ad installer?) but my NAV deleted it. I still get messages from NAV that attempts to hijack were blocked by the NAV firewall. Also, the System restore wont work, whether I turn it off and restart it not at all.

Print Spooler Saying That It Wasn't Able To Communicate

Jun 1, 2005

I am running XP and have been for some time with no problems, recently my printer began playing up (saying that it wasn't able to communicate) that problem seemed to go away after a while. Since then my computer has been 'getting stuck' after it prints a document.It would print the first document but then nothing after that, i found that the print spooler was showing that the just printed job was marked in status as being deleted... however it would go away and nothing else would get printed. i played around with active processes and found that I could delete the 'deleting' process and get the printing going again.

Print Spooler Service Is Not Running

Aug 5, 2006

When I try and open a printer I get the error message "operation could not be completed, print spooler service is not running."I've looked round the forums and tried some things. I can get the spooler service to start by starting it under admin tools, and also by typing 'net start spooler' in the command prompt. It starts up, and for a few seconds it runs and I can access my printer, but within half a minute is stops running again, and I'm back to where I was. So I am unable to print at all.

Print From Dos Application With Spooler Off - Net Use Lpt1

Jul 14, 2004

windows xp Home srvpk 1
dell opitlplex glx

I have an old dos app that needs to print to a hp laser 2300 have setup "net use lpt1: \computernamepname /persistant:yes changed bios settings to parllel mode to epp,ecc and ps2 setup share on printer and checked spelling type "net use" shows lpt1 -> ok turned bidirectional printing on and off tried to print directly to printer turn spooler off. deleted all printers and drivers and reinstalled from HP

prints fine from all window applications. when you try to print from the dos app with spooler off nothing. when you try to print with spooler on you can see a job go to spooler then a second job will appear and the first will delete this will loop-continue until you cancell all print jobs. after this happens once. Windows applications will not print any longer. Does the same thing as the dos app have to reboot to fix window apps.

Printer - Appears In The Print Queue As "printing" But Never Prints

May 22, 2006

I have a dell 2400 series PC running XP home edition. My Dell A920 printer stopped working. When I uninstalled and tried to reinstall it, I couldn't get it to reinstall properly. I used the original CD and I also downloaded a driver from dell.com. Neither worked. I tried to install a new Samsung ML-2010 printer. I used the included CD. It finished the install and when I tried to print the test page, it wouldn't print. It appears in the print queue as "printing" but never prints. When I reboot, I see a message on the system tray saying new hardware detected, there was trouble on the install and new device may not work correctly. I tried to do a repair from the enclosed Samsung CD but it didn't fix the problem. When it tried to print the test page, it said "not responding" in the blue bar across the top of the page

System Stuck In Safe Mode / Print Spooler Wont Run?

Dec 14, 2009

My PC (XP SP3) suffered a rough recovery from a malware infection. I.e., certain services (like Print Spooler) no longer run.The malware is gone, but when I go into Computer Management and try to restart the services (like Print Spooler), an error message pops up saying "Cannot start service in Safe Mode"However, it is definitely not in safe mode. So, there must be some internal flag that says otherwise. Restarting XP in safe mode and then in normal mode doesn't un-stick it.

Printer Spooler Won't Stay On - Printer Spooler Service

Mar 10, 2008

I'm a tech at a college and am working on this computer that the printer spooler service won't stay started.You start up the machine and go to printers and faxes. There are none listed (of course cause the spooler isn't running) You click on add printer and it tells you that the service isn't running. So you go to run services.msc, printer spooler says it's stopped so you start it. It will then run until you try to print something or go to printers and faxes in the control panel. Basically as soon as you open the window the printer spooler service stops.Does anyone know a fix for this. Last time it happened one of my co-workers found a tool to fix it but we haven't been able to find it since and all the researching I have done leads me nowhere

Printed Job Remain In Queue

Mar 4, 2005

I have 3 print queues that are retaining the printed jobs in the queue and every now and again the damn thing prints all the job again. I have checked that the keep printed jobs button is NOT checked/selected, but the queue acts ilke it is selected to keep printed jobs. I have 125 printer queues and only 3 act like this and they are set up identical to the others. I have reconfigured this twice on all 3 and they still act like they are set to keep printed jobs in the queue.Anyone seen this and know of a solution, on the Microsoft site I am seeing posts but not a single reply about how to either run a job to clear them out a couple times a day or fix this so they act as configured. To NOT keep printed jobs in the queue.

Black Ink Wont Print/No Pages In Previous Printer Would Print?

Dec 28, 2006

I previously owned a Lexmark Z25 printer and up to a certain point, it was printing ok. Then it abruptly stopped printing any pages. It sounded as if it was getting the signal from the computer, but nothing would print. Rather than buy new cartridges, which would have cost more than a new printer, I bought a Dell 720. Now, the color prints fine, but I cannot get the black to print. The cartridges are just about full with only a small amount out of the black cartridge.

Print Icon Brings Up Print Properties Box?

Jul 20, 2005

All worked as normal Printer icon would print automatically with default print settings; File -Print would bring up print properties dialogue box to select options.Unhooked printer from laptop. Since reconnecting printer, the print icon button reverts to bringing up the print properties box as happens with going File - print. There is only one printer attached - it is shown in "Printers and Faxes" with a tick. There is nowhere to check it as the default printer as it is the only printer.How can I make the print icon button just do straight default prints again?

Print Jobs Don't Get Into Print Server Is Offline

Apr 25, 2010

I have an old Sony VAIO (running Win Xp) that I am using a print server. The VAIO is connected to a HP PSC. The VAIO is on a wireless network along with two other laptops. One laptop is running Win Xp and the other is running Vista. Everything was working fine as far as printing went until I reinstalled the OS on the Win Xp machine (same OS). Previously the VAIO would go offline due to hibernation and so if I tried to print something from the Xp machine, it would get in the queue and get printed when I turned the VAIO on. Now the print jobs are not getting in a queue when the VAIO is offline.I don't know what I did right before and so I don't know how to remedy the problem.

NIS Printer Spooler Pop Ups While Opening ?

Aug 29, 2005

I tried support at the Symantec site, and searched Google.Others seem to have the same problem, but I cannot find a solution.After installing Norton Internet Security 2005, I keep getting constant pop up messages about the printer spooler when I open NIS. The printer operates fine.It is NIS that is causing the problem. It is odd that I have found so many posts at Google about this, but that the Symantec knowledgebase has nothing.
