What happens when you restart the print spooler? Good luck! 0 Ghost Chili OP _Justin_ Jan 17, 2013 at 4:19 UTC When you reinstall the printer, do you select to "use existing" driver? If so I would choose to re-install the driver and see if that works. 0 Datil OP BSOD'D https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/292381-users-printers-gone-trying-to-reinstall-printer-gives-print-processor-error Jan 17, 2013 at 4:24 UTC Try uninstalling the printers from print management and then re-installing them Howto - http://theitbros.com/remove-windows-vista7-printer-driver 0 Cayenne OP Joe2233 Jan 17, 2013 at 4:41 UTC Uninstall old drivers and see if there is a universal driver available This on a Windows 7x64 computer right 0 Ghost Chili OP David9459 Jan 17, 2013 at 4:55 UTC Joe2233 wrote: Uninstall old drivers and see if there is a universal driver available This on a Windows 7x64 computer right I'd agree with uninstalling old drivers. We'e had problems with 64 bit computers and usually have to try all available drivers to see what actually works. Often NOT the PCL5 drivers, sometime the Universal drivers work, sometimes the Vista drivers work. I don't know why it is this hard. 1 Mace OP Rockn Jan 17, 2013 at 5:13 UTC Sounds like the print spooler service is stopped. If it isn't running no printers will show in the list and no printers can be added. 1 Anaheim OP Rick3279 Jan 17, 2013 at 5:24 UTC I had problems like this with viruses that attack the spoolersv.exe in Windows XP.

Solved Issue with "Print Processor Does does not Not Exist" - Windows 7 Pro 64-bit Posted on 2013-04-05 Windows OS Printers and Scanners Windows 7 1 Verified Solution 3 Comments 6,583 Views Last Modified: 2013-04-23 I am having an issue with a particular domain-joined Windows 7 computer that seems to have had its print services all messed up. The computer was priting just fine yesterday to a certain does not exist point, where it just stopped working. All the network joined computers disappeared from Devices and Printers, and it was giving an error that the Print Spooler was not running. So, simple enough, cleared out the information in the Printers and Drivers folder in %systemroot%\windows\system32\spool\* folder, restarted the Print Spooler, and I then had the ability to try and add new printers. However, when I went to re-add these printers, the print spooler was stopping/crashing during the install process. I repeated this step over and over, and then, out of nowhere, I started to get the "printer processor does not exist" or "cannot connect to printer" error message. I uninstalled print services, rebooted, reinstalled print services, and tried to add again, and no luck. I the printer driver files are ok, as I was able to add the printer to two other domain-joined Windows 7 machines and print just fine. System restore on the affected computer did not alleviate the problem either. I'm not sure what I am missing, and I am trying to prevent a wipe and re-i
Armandus 9 Comments So I have came across this error on one of my user's computer when trying to install a network printer. To give you some background, I usually install network printers (which is installed on the print server and shared) using the following technique: Go to RUN Browse to print server by typing the hostname (all shared printers should be listed if setup that way) Double-click on desired printer to install and there you go. When I tried this technique today (together with other ways of connecting to a network printer) I can accross the error "Windows cannot connect to the printer. The print processor does not exist". I did the normal print spooler restart / stop-start, but to no avail. I searched the web for answers, but this was one case which had no direct resolution. So eventually I managed to get this fixed. I hope the following info will help you when you run into this problem, as this worked for me. Steps to follow: Firstly, remove all printer drivers installed. To make sure, go to Devices and Printers, select a printer (not double click) and choose "Print Server Properties". In the list that appears, Remove all the printers, and when prompted for each printer, select "Remove driver and driver package" When that is done, stop the print spooler service. Now, open Regedit and navigate to the following path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Print Processors\ Expant "Print Processors" and make sure there is a key called "winprint". If not, right-click on "Print Processors" and select NEW -> Key. Call it "winprint" (without the quotes). Within the "winprint" key, create a new String Value and call it "Driver". It's value data should be "winprint.dll" (without the quotes). Now navigate to the following path in Windows Explorer: C:\Windows\System32\spool\prtprocs\w32x86 You will find some files there, but the most important would be the "winprint.dll", "jnwppr.dll" and "msonpppr.dll" files. Delete them (or to be safe, just move them to another location). If you have an "access denied" or "other program(s) are using the files" prompt, make sure that the print spooler service is stopped. Now you need to find a similiar PC environment (Windows 7 32-bit, etc). From the working PC, copy the 3 following files t
