hi
ok here goes...
i used to have a lexmark printer installed but then i got and installed a hp printer. all was ok until (i think ) i uninstalled the lexmark printer.
i now cannot use the hp printer as i cant get my print spooler to run.
i have looked on other forums but i really need someone to tell me step by step what to do. a friend told me to rebuild my laptop, is this what i am going to have to do??
i am getting pretty desperate as need a printer for work. would it work if i got a brand new printer?

i look forward to any help please !

Hi,

Click the start menu in the search box type: sc config spooler depend= RPCSS
then type this command into the search box: net stop spooler
then this one: net start spooler

Click “add a printer”. Click “Next” then Choose “A local computer” and untick “Automatically Detect P&P Devices”, Click Next Choose “Create a new port”, and choose “Standard TCP/IP Port” from the drop down list Click Next. In printer name, type “192.168.1.1″ and let the computer fill in the field below. Click next.In the next window choose “Generic Network Adapter” from the dropdown list After that, select your printer driver, and click next Fill in the details it wants, click next Fill in the rest of the details, click Next Click finish and you are done.
