Our XP home server and our laptop running Vista Home Premium do see each other in our home network
and we can transfer files between them. As of now we never were able to load the driver at the
laptop for printing at the server. The same printer can be loaded on a USB port in the laptop and
it works well.
As I try the following to load a network printer - Start, Printers, Add a printer, it asks, 'Add a
local printer' or 'Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer', I chose Add a network printer, it
shows the available printers, I chose the HP LaserJet 1022, and it says connecting, but that is
the end of it. The description of the error is -
"Windows cannot connect to the printer. The local print spooler service is not running. Please
restart the spooler or restart the machine."
"Spooler Subsystem App stopped working and was closed"
Any idea how to fix it? How to restart the spooler? I have restarted the laptop and tried several
times, but the same result. Appreciate help.
