A problem with the printer
I've a laser jet printer "hp LaserJet 1000 series" & it was
working fine until yesterday when I tried to print a web page, my internet browser shut down & then when I tried to check the printer, it was gone!! I didn't find it in the printers & faxes folder. I tried "add a printer" & it gave me this error message "Operation could not be completed. The printer spooler service is not running" What that mean & how I can fix it. I'm using XP SP 2. Thanks |

A problem with the printer
I have a similar problem, installing a Lexmark Printer/Scanner. It is a 1200
and I also have a HP Laser Jet 5500 printer that I want to use for the default. I have tried to install the Lexmark, and so has another person. It is compatiable but I get the message that the installation can not be completed and it might work. It does show up as being installed and working properly. I think the problem is the driver, but I can't seem to get anything done.

Do you have the latest drivers from the Lexmark website?
