    Print Spooler Can't Start - Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start.

    I am having the same issue with a Canon MG3100 Pixma printer. I recently upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. I had not tried to print until several days after the upgrade. Here is the message:

    Windows could not start the Print Spooler service on Local Computer.

    Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start.

    I have tried removing the device and reinstalling using the original installation CD.But during Step 2 (Installation), I get the following message:

    MP Drivers

    Processing cannot be continued because the Windows Print Spooler service has been stopped. Start the Print Spooler service and then try again.

    Trying the spooler service manual start via command prompt route accomplished nothing.

    Nothing has worked. The latest attempt to print a .pdf document, I get an Acrobat Reader message - Before you can print you must install a printer.

    Can someone please help, Murphy's Law is striking, I have an important presentation due soon and I need to be able to see batch information in print view (hardcopy) to then refine my presentation from that data.

    Kind thanks!

    Print Spooler Service Error 1068, The dependency service or group failed to start

    error 1068: Printer Spooler service not working/starting

    Hi,

    A workaround is to remove "http" from the list of Dependencies for Spooler.

    (From Fix Spooler Service Error 1068)

    From an elevated Command Prompt, type:

    SC CONFIG SPOOLER DEPEND= RPCSS

    There is a space after the equal-to sign. Spooler should start now.

    But the other issue why http driver doesn't start, needs troubleshooting.

    In the Admin command prompt window, type:

    NET START HTTP

    Post back the error. (It's probably code 31 again.)
