I'm having a problem with my printer. When I try to
print, an error message tels me print spooler is not
running. When I check in services under admin tools, the
status listed is running. Is it running or not? Could a
bad printer or bad printer cable be causing all of this?
I can't delete the printer if spooler isn't running, and
stopping and restarting the spooler has no effect on
anyhing. Any ideas?
 
Printer is Canon BJC-250. It's been working great for over a year....now it won't reload drivers, can't delete old drivers...I've read other articles on manually removing drivers and reinstalling, and still no luck. I will probably use a lot of foul language if I have to reload all of Windows XP......AGAIN.
