How do I make my print spooler service run? What is a print spooler? -

I keep getting the message print spooler service not running. I have A Toshiba laptop and a HP 2610v printer. I know the printer works but I get the same print spooler message

The printer spooler allows communication relay between your compute and your printer. To start the spooler go to -- My Computer (Right Click) -- Manage (Left Click) -- Services and Application (Left Click) lt; in left panel -- Services (Double Click) lt; in right panel -- Scroll all the way down to quot;Printer Spoolerquot; -- Printer Spooler (Right Click) -- Start (Left Click) and now your spooler service should start running and if you don t have any other issues with your printer you should be able to print.

heres a link for an automatic fix for this: http://www.out-of-warranty.com/print-diagnostic-utility-for-hp-lexmark-canon-dell-xerox-and-everything-else Report Abuse

one the main reason why print spooler has stopped working is that may be u have a lexmark printer or dell printer. If these printer s/w are installed on ur laptop before only then u will get that msg.... All u have to do is that u have to remove those registry keys form registry. Steps below will help u remove the registry keys. But befoe doing any thing plz export ur registry to some location.... START---gt;RUN---gt;regedit----gt;HEY_KEY_LO… MACHINE---gt;SYSTEM---gt;currentcontrolset--… it RPCSS

I guess you can t or should t try either if u are t a qualified hardware technician,of printers but you can know about quot;print spoolerquot; from Google search or Wikipedia. Browse,good luck!
