When i try to install my Hp c7280 it tells me that my print spooler service
has been stopped. how do i start this as the HP installer is not able to do
this. Windows XP SP3

Is the HP Standard TCP/IP port monitor installed ?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors

When i go to services on Xp and tell it to start the print spooler service,
it gives me error 2: system cannot find the file specified. I am running xp
professional, several years old, and i do have SP3 installed. If possible,
do not want to have to reinstall xp.
 
it is not an HP problem, rather an XP problem, the system cannot find the
print spooler when i tell it to start the spooler in services.
 
spooler core files

localspl.dll
win32spl.dll
spoolss.dll
spoolsv.exe
tcpmon.dll
tcpmib.dll


Check for dependencies in Services.msc for the print spooler service.

verify the correct system files are installed.

in a command prompt type
sfc /scannow
