printer spool

ever since I went in my system and followed some of the hints here to get better quality gameplay, my printer won't print.  It says something about printerspool but when I try to turn the spool thingy back on, it wont stay.
help!!!!!

SkyRock, ya need to go to run type services.msc and scroll down to print spooler and double click it.  You will probably see that it is disabled.  You need to either set it to manual or automatic and then click apply and start service.  Your printer should work then.  Hope this helps ya out.

All the Best...

I have tried to start it from there, but I'm not sure about setting it to manual or automatice first.  I'll try when I get home.  Thank you very mcuh for your time!

Well if your not sure, select automatic and then select APPLY.  If it doesn't work then reboot and it should work.

All the Best...
