I had the Spooler Printer not running problem and used the following from above that worked like a charm;
*Make sure the Print Spooler service is running ...
1.GO to Start then run and type services.msc and then click OK.
2.Scroll down and find Printer Spooler service under the Name column
3 Right click on Printer Spooler and select Properties.
In place of #3 I simply clicked on Printer Spooler and it presented it's settings on the left side of the box, and I just clicked on Start the Service...
worked like a charm...not sure why the printer spooler stopped working, possibly from some recent power spikes from power outages (but I could be wrong on that).
