System Specs : Windows 7 Ultimate 32x/4GB Ram/ BTW READ: in services.msc it does not read Printer Spooler but just Spooler ooMisfit, Nov 9, 2012 #1 Sponsor pip22 Joined: Nov 21, 2004 Messages: 2,536 " in services.msc it does not read Printer Spooler but just Spooler" Very strange -- it should definitely say Print Spooler. There is no service just called "Spooler" that I've ever seen. I suggest you uninstall the printer, then re-install it as if you were doing it for the first time, observing the manufacturer's installation procedure which usually requires that you begin installing the printer driver with the usb cable disconnected & the printer turned off until you see a prompt to connect it & turn it on. pip22, Nov 10, 2012 #2 ooMisfit Thread Starter Joined: Nov 9, 2012 Messages: 4 That's the problem,I have no printer installed but i have the cd installation that required me to turn on the spooler ooMisfit, Nov 10, 2012 #3 huggie54 Joined: Feb 17, 2008 Messages: 2,631 hiya.so you have the installation disc that came with the printer,you have installed the printer but it is not showing as installed,has this printer worked or are we trying to get it to work,as sa
