Spooler & Printer Problems Wolfeymole & Goku, My thanks to you both, but the saga continues.............. Lexbe Server is back to Automatic and in Started status and Print Spooler in starter status too (so far so good?) Lexmark 1200 Series was successfully installed (so Wizard said), but printer still is not communicating and when seeking it in the Control Panel it is shown as being offline and Printing Preferences are still down by a Protection Fault as already reported and on the Print Page, when entering Lexmark 1200 Series, the replies are 'no items match your search' and the file name is not valid.

Goku, Thanks very much for your suggestions; but having carried out your instructions and when reinstalling the Lexmark cd, I got the messages that:- 1. the print spooler had stopped and to continue installation I was to press OK and when doing this the installation stopped. I then went into services and tried to start the print spooler, but got message 2:- error 1068..... the dependency service or group failed to start.

Wolfeymole. Thanks for your quick response to my query and I carried out your suggestionl but unfortunately no luck,omly the following messages:- Function address OxO protection fault (exception code Oxc 000000%) and Entry point not found. The procedure entry point ?? 1CNavigator @@QAE@XZ could not be located in the dynamic library - lxczutil.dll Any hope?

I am getting messages that my Lexmark Printer is not communicating with my computer and that the spooler subsystem app has stopped working and was closed. Have been trying various suggested remedies with no luck over the past week; and hope there is some computer samaritan out there.
