    Print Spooling Issue

    I did as suggested, however, it would not let me uncheck "Spool print doc ..." and the "Print directly to printer" was faded out and wouldn't let me check it.

    Any suggestions.

    Print Spooling Issue

    Hi Beth,

    An incompatible printer is one of the possible causes why it does not print with your Windows 10 device. We'll not include the steps you have done which are: Starting and stopping the spooling. Deleted items from print folder. Ran 3 different virus scans.
    Reinstalled 4 times. Have updated drivers. I even set up printer as non wireless (with cable).

    To troubleshoot your concern, kindly follow these steps:

    • Use the Microsoft easy fix tool. Select Troubleshoot problems with devices and printers
      You may refer to this
      link      . Simply run the file and follow the instructions in the Troubleshooting wizard.
    • Download the latest driver directly from the OEM/manufacturer’s site.
    • Clear print queue. Run an elevated command prompt and type the following commands in succeeding order:

      net stop spooler (press Enter)

      del %systemroot%\System32\spool\printers\* /Q (press Enter)

      net start spooler (press Enter)
    • Roll back to a previous driver. Go to Device Manager> Print queues> Select your printer> Right click> Properties> Driver> Roll back.
    • Edit registry. Note: You need to a backup file first before proceeding to the steps.
      Navigate to the ff. registry key:

      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows x64\Print Processors
    • Delete all the driver keys for existing printers, scanners, etc except for winprint.
    • Restart your system. Proceed with the usual re-installation of latest printer drivers and see if it makes any difference.

    If the issue still persists, please contact the printer manufacturer for better assistance.

    Should you need further help, please let us know.
