Many friends have encountered this problem when the computer adds a printer by prompting the printer daemon service not to run or by prompting the "spooler subsystem application has stopped working and shutting down" when printing with the printer. The following is a detailed explanation of why the printer daemon service is not running and how to fix it.
Prompt "Printer Daemon service not running" reason analysis
When you add a printer or use a printer, the system error "The Print Spooler service is not running" occurs because of system instability that causes the system to support printer services that cannot be enabled. The Print Spooler service is a service for Windows 2000, XP, and 2003 systems that support printers, all of which are required for printer-related operations within the system.
The user prompts the spooler subsystem application to stop working and close when printing with the printer. This error is due to the fact that the Print Spooler service cannot be completed, just clear all the files in the C:windowssystem32spoolprinters directory.
Tip The Printer Daemon service is not running solution
Method One: The Print Spooler service does not end the problem
Cancels the read-only property of the print background file in the%systemroot%system32spoolprinters folder, and then deletes the background file from the%systemroot%system32spoolprinters folder.
Method Two: The problem of playing machine service
Select "My Computer" on the desktop, the right mouse button to choose "Management";
In the Administration window, select the Services option under the Services and Applications extension project, locate the "Printspooler" service in the list of system services on the right, and double-click the "Print Spooler" service setting;
In the Print Spooler Service Settings window, set the startup type to automatic and click the Start button;
The system will attempt to start the service at this time;
When the service starts successfully, the service status is displayed as started, either by adding or using the other actions of the printer, or by opening the printer item in Control Panel, right-clicking on the printer properties---advanced, and changing the spool to print directly.
Method Three: Printer driver issues
Please remove the original printer from the--> printer and add it again 1 times, it is not possible to reinstall the driver 1 times.
See if Spoolsv.exe is deleted as a virus?
Press Ctrl+alt+delete to view "processes", if deleted, please add.
Method Four: The virus causes the prompt "The Printer daemon service is not running."
1. Open Registry Editor (RegEdt32.exe).
2. Navigate to and delete the following key from the registry:
hkey_local_machinesystemcontrolset001 controlprintprinters
3. Quit Registry Editor.
After the virus cleared your SPOOLSV. EXE file is not, and in the service of your background printing printspooler can not start, of course, the printer can not run, in the running of the "services.msc" in the "Printspooler" service in the "General" item in the "Executable path" Also becomes unavailable, such as startup will display "Error 3: Unable to find system path" error, because your registry dependencies have also been deleted (when the virus is cleared above).
Workaround:
1: In the installation of the CD-ROM I386 directory to copy the Spoolsv.ex_ file to the SYSTEM32 directory under the name of Spoolsv.exe, of course, can also be in other people's system to this file, you can also use the Nt/xp File Protection function, that is, in the cmd type sfc/ Scannow Full repair, anyway you can restore this file on it.
2: Modify the registry, under [Hkey_local_machinesystemcurrentcontrolsetservicesspooler] Add a "imagepath" = " C:windowssystem32spoolsv.exe "on it, and then open to see, your printing can be used!"
Alternative solutions:
1, in the service will "Print Spooler" stop.
2, the "c:windowssystem32spoolprints" under the deletion of all the files (because there is no virus in the computer, this folder is empty).
3. Finally, the "Print Spooler" service will be opened.
If you do not start the Print Spooler service after you follow the steps above, or perform a printer operation The times are still wrong, most of the problems related to the operating system's important files, try to check the virus after the computer and then try again; there are still problems, it is recommended that after important files are backed up, reinstall
