Can someone help me out with this. My computer says that my Print Spooler is not working correctly. It won't let me print or anything. And I have no idea what a Print Spooler is? :huh

What operating system, what printer?
Have you tried shutting everything down (pc and printer) and trying again?
If all else fails I would remove and reinstall the printer.

First off, thanks for replying.
The computer is a Dell Dimension 4400 running XP.
The printer is a Lexmark X83
I have tried shutting everything down and I have tried reinstalling the printer. But, it won't even let me reinstall it. It says that the "Operation could not be completed" when I use the "add printer". It says the the print spooler is not running. Any ideas?
Thanks

Still no luck. It said that it was already set to automatic. Any thing else?
Thanks

I think I got it. I went back to the services and it said that it was stopped. I just pressed start and I think it's going to work. Thanks guys for your help. I really appreciate it.
Thanks

or drop down to a command prompt and type "net start spooler"
