Re: Print Spooler

From: "C. Moore" <CMoore@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

| I am running Windows XP Home on a Toshiba notebook. I recently tried to add
| a printer and got an error message when clicking on Add a Printer which says;
| print spooler not running. I was advised elsewhere to go to Run, and run
| "net start spooler" which I did but it didn't resolve the problem. I am
| still getting the error message. Any suggestions?

What was the result of starting the Print Spooler Service ?

If you run; services.msc

And you scroll down to; Print Spooler

What is its state ? Is it; "Started" ?
