In some instances, you might receive error Error 1068 "The dependency service or group failed to start" when attempting to start the Print Spooler.

Thread Status: Not open for further replies. Page 1 of 2 1 2 Next > Advertisement libertymonger Thread Starter Joined: May 2, 2007 Messages: 15 I am running Windows XP, and I have not been able to print in over three weeks. The printer is directly connected with a USB cable. There are no printers listed. When I try to add a printer or print from most of my software the following error message pops up: "Operation could not be completed. The print spooler service is not running." I have started the print spooler service several times, but the Print Spooler service will not remain started. In Services the Status is blank and Startup Type is automatic. I have tried to install a new printer driver downloaded from the printer manufacturer website. I have not been able to find any viruses or spy ware. I can not do a system restore because I found no restore points before the problem appeared. I have not been able to find this exact problem while browsing this site, and I would appreciate any help you could provide. libertymonger, May 2, 2007 #1 Sponsor ChefTech Joined: May 2, 2007 Messages: 1 Hi Liberty, I also ran into this problem. I have found a solution but I was looking for more information about it and saw your post. It is related to XP's data execution prevention. I have added the print spooler service to the excluded list and it has solved the problem. I am currently looking to see if this will leave the PC's vulnerable. Go to System Properties>Advanced Select Performance>Settings Select Data Execution Prevention Select Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select Click Add Paste this in to the file name box of the window that opens: C:\WINDOWS\system32\spoolsv.exe Select Open Select OK when you receive the warning Select Apply And you will be printing again.
