Windows 10: Print Spooler

My update to Windows 10 from Windows 7 went without problems but none of the three printers attached to my computer worked and I have been struggling with the problem over the last two weeks. There is another long thread "Can't connect to Printer" which has not produced a solution.
One solution seemed to be to delete the printers and then Add. Problem is they won't delete - just get a notation "No driver available". If you try to Add a printer you get "Windows cannot Add a Printer because the Print Spooler is turned off - Restart it.
If you go to Services/Print Spooler/Properties you find that the Spooler is indeed stopped. There is a Start button and a space for Start Parameters. I don't know what any parameters would be but if you press Start without any, you get an error Message 0x70080057 "Wrong Parameters".
A search in Google for this error produces a flood of items. It seems too be a very common error ! I didn't find anything helpful.
Does anyone know how to restart Print Spooler ?

How to turn on print spooler in windows 10.

Original Title- turn on print spooler

turn on print spooler

 

print spooler keeps crashing unable to uninstall or install printer - windows 10 pro 16299.125

i ran the print troubleshooter again, but because spooler service had crashed so many times, it was able to do more analysis. it suggested an option that isolated the print drivers from the spooler service to increase spooler staility. I have no idea what
any of that means. maybe you could clue me in?

Have you solved tthe problem?
Thanks

 

I have had this situation and it seems to come and go. The temporary solution is to open a command prompt as administrator and type in:

Net Start "Print Spooler"

If the spooler is running and you want to bounce it type:

Net stop "Print Spooler"
Net start "Print Spooler"


​I haven't yet come across a permanent fix.

 

Thanks for your answer. The problem seems to have solved itself in the meantime but may recur, so I am pleased to have your advice.

Glad to help.

 

Unfortunely my problem persist...

 

Anyone have solved the problem?
Thanks.

 

No. I gave up and went back to Windows 7.
