    Print Spooler Restart


    I am trying to install a printer. During the setup the installer stops the Print Spooler service and when it goes to restart the service, the service gets stuck on starting. When I cancel the installation the service goes back to operating normally... I've had the printer installed before and it worked fine, but it just decided on Friday morning to stop working and one of the fixes I tried was to remove the printer to try and reinstall it and now I'm stuck. Why would this be happening and how can I fix it?

    :)

    Script to restart print spooler

    Hi

    I'm trying to get a script to restart the print spooler on a server from a slient so I don't have to remote in and restart it manually each time. Is this possible?

    I have the restart code, just need to point it to a server.

    Code: @echo off net stop spooler net start spooler exit[/quote] Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Must restart Spooler to print

    Have you set the Print Spooler server to Automatic? If you haven't, then let's do it. Follow the steps below:

    • Open Services through the search box.
    • Locate Print Spooler service and double click it.
    • Once the Print Spooler Properties window is open, look for Startup type and set is to
      Automatic.
    • Check also the Service status and make sure that it is set to Started.
    • Click Apply, then OK.

    In case there are other printers installed on your PC that you no longer use, we suggest that you uninstall it as it may also cause some issues with Print Spooler.

    Looking forward to your reply.

    Regards

    print spooler

    Hi harley707. I'm here to help.

    Try these steps. (I will leave a link to the video I found these steps in at the bottom of this reply. The website is not a Microsoft website.)

    1. Right-click the lower left corner of the computer screen to open the menu.

    2. Click Search and type "services" and press "View local services".

    3. Scroll down the list until you find "Print Spooler".

    4. Right click "Print Spooler" and press Restart.

    The Print Spooler will restart.

    If your printer spooler will not restart, you might have to restart your computer.

    Thanks.
