You set it for each individual printer. In the printers and faxes area
right click the printer, click properties, click advanced, and click on the
bullet point for print directly to the printer. Report back to see if this
gets your printer working. Unfortunately, you can't use your computer while
the print job is in progress like you can when you print through the
spooler. Wish MS would solve this problem for us as it drastically slows
down workflow. I've seen lots of posts about this problem with various
printers and xp pro. I have two printers on my computer, the canon ip5000
inkjet through a USB connection (can't use the spooler with this one) and an
HP5p connected via parallel port (and works fine with the spooler.) All
other devices - card reader, external HD, bluetooth keyboard and mouse, and
scanner - work fine with USB connections. My i960 printer, connected via
USB, worked just fine with the spooler until the printhead started
banding,so I replaced it with my wife's ip5000 which works just fine on her
PC with xp pro. I suspect that mine is different in that I have it set for
auto xp updates and hers is not. Might be related to an update that screwed
up the spooler function with the ip5000.

Hi,
Could you tell me how you "print directly to printer" and where that tab
is
found? I went into Control Panel, Printers and Faxes, Tools, Folder
Options,
Advanced Settings, but didn't find it. If there is a way I can print
again,
I would greatly appreciate it. My print spooler is not running, I've
tried
the fixes (cleanspl utility, it would not work) and I've asked for
additional
guidance here in the Windows XP Newsgroups, but no one has responded (See
my
post below, "Cleanspl Utility Will Not Work", July 2, 2006). So if I can
print another way, I thank you for the help. Kind regards, rmcw

Good MorningExactly the same issue with my Canon ip5000 with USB connection to a
Dear All
I have an XP laptop that will not print to an HP deskjet USB printer,
which is online and set as the default (and in fact only) printer
If I go into advance settings and change to "print directly to printer"
it works fine.
I have stopped and restarted the print spooler service - no joy
I have removed and reinstalled the printer with the latest drivers from
the HP website - no joy
I have renamed "spoolsv.exe" in C:\windows\system32 and then copied
this
file from the Windows XP cd back into this directory and rebooted
windows -
still no joy.
Is anyone able to offer any wisdom please? Things are getting desperate
now as have been trawling MS KBs for weeks now...
Yours despairingly

P4 with xp pro. I've done all the fixes that Canon has suggested and
finally am printing directly to the printer. What a pain in the ass!
This
must be a bug in xp pro having to do with the spooler. I've been
requesting
help now for several weeks on this an other xp NG's. So far, no
suggestion
has worked. I hope that MS pros on this NG will get back to MS and work
out
a fix for this obnoxious problem.
