Print Spooling and iPhoto

When trying to print a collection of photos on a minolta/konica 2430 laser printer through iPhoto, The printer appears to be receiving the command to print because the printer opens in the dock and then closes as though it has completed the job. Only problem No printing.
The printer works fine with all other apps. Does the printer need more memory for the file size or does the spooler handle the memory issue? Can the memory size be adjusted in the spooler or whats happening.

MaN:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Will the printer print OK with just one photo?
Right after trying a print job, check the Console for the logs and see if there's anything that might shed some light on the issue. Have you tried removing the print drive and then reinstalling it or running Printer Setup Repair (get it at VersionTracker.com)?
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

Printer won't print, fixes won't fix! Reset the printer spooler dependencies to default.

Using a stand-alone Dell XPS 420 with Vista 32 bit and an OKI C1500 printer connected by USB. Always a problem getting the printer going after it has been disconnected, but this time it's a big problem! Get a printer spooler error message and it defaults
to 'use printer offline' so have:
restarted Printer Spooler in Services and set it to Automatic start and set it's Recovery to restart after each failure
rebooted, restored PC, power recycled printer, tried different usb slots, cable works OK
deleted printer driver in case it was corrupt and downloaded a new one
applied the automatic Fixit programme
applied a fix to prnter dependencies resetting them to RPCSS
None of the above has worked.
Now I would like to know how to reset the default drivers for the spooler and find out the cause and how to fix the problem!
Recently removed a Trojan that hi-jacked 32Rundll and stopped Microsoft Security Essentilals from running.
I need any explanation in slow. simple dorkspeak like 'Step one: press down on the button with B on it' or I won't understand!
A lot to to ask I guess! Thanks,

Hi,
o to Start / Run and type in "services.msc" without quotation marks, then press Enter or click OK.
In the window that opens (Services) look for "Print Spooler" on the right
Right-click "Print Spooler" and select "Properties".
Click on the "Recovery" tab and change all 3 drop-down boxes to "Restart The Service".
Make sure the 2 text boxes underneath say "1" in them.
Click Ok until you are back at the Services window, close it and you're good to go.
Go back into the properties of the "Print Spooler" tab and be sure to click Start to restart the Print Spooler service and it will restart the service immediately.
The Print spooler depends on the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service. Is this service disabled? Go to services.msc look for RPC. Check state: Automatic

I need help with a print spooler error message

Out of the blue I lost my printer connection. When I look at my printer menu there is no printer listed. When I try to add or install a printer, I get some odd message about a printer spooler is not running. Restart the machine. I've tried unhooking the printer, rebooting, unhooking from the power source. I even went into some area as an administrator and found the print spool task and when I clicked on the start button there was no action.

This is a MS Windows issue. Try this:
Right click on My Computer
Select Manage
Double click on Services and Application
Double click on Services
Scroll down to Print Spooler and double click on it
Click on Dependencies tab
Check what dependencies the print spooler has, if any you may need to click on + on those dependencies to more dependencies
Go back to the Services list
On each of the spooler dependencies, double click on it
Make sure it is set to Automatic in the Startup Type drop down menu
Now click on Start to start the service
Click OK
Now try and print.

Print spooler won't run, printer won't connect or install, l have the disk

The printer will scan but it won't print,it says the print spooler is not on, live tried the installation disk, the computer can't even find the printer

Try manually starting the print spooler. If that doesn't work, you may need to contact Microsoft as there may be a problem with your OS install.
To manually start the print spooler:
1. Click the start menu.
2. In the search box type services.msc and press Enter on your keyboard.
3. Scroll down the list until you see Print Spooler.
4. On the left-hand side of the window, you should see the work Start in blue letters. Click that and it should start the spooler service.
5. Right click on the Print Spooler and make sure it's set to start automatically.
6. Close the window.

Printer Spooler Won't Start

Dear HP Forum, When I try to print something or add a printer, it says printer spooler service not runnning. I found ways to fix the problem. I went to services.msc to printer spooler and when I tried to start the service it said error: 0x800706b9 Not enough resoucres are available to complete this operation. Can you please help I need to print really important documents. Sincerely, HP Printer Customer

If Adil's suggestion does not work then try the command below. This will clear out your current dependencies on the spooler and leave it with just RPCSS which should allow you to start print spooler. Remember to run this from and Administrative
command prompt by going to your start screen and typing in "cmd" and then right clicking on Command Prompt and selecting Run As Administrator.
sc config spooler depend=rpcss
do not work for me at all: get the error msg:
[SC] OpenService FAILED 1060
The specified service does not exist as an installed service.
Be kind and Mark as Answer if I helped.

Adobe Crashing Printer Spool?

Using Adobe 7 pro on Win XP
A co worker is having problems with her printer spools crashing when using adobe pro 7. We get a windows error that says "spoiler sub system app" has crashed. I tried to add another printer thinking maybe it was the printer and I'd just swap it out and I get an error that says spoiler service is not running.
The fixes we have found and have been using include stuff like deleting folders C:\windows\system32\spool\printers & C:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86 and editing/deleting registry entries.
Anyone know what the real cause might be causing a spoiler sub system crash? Having to go through this process of deleting files and editing the registry everyday is starting to suck.

Thanks. I found a microsoft tool called "fix it" that fixes the print spooler and took care of it. Wasnt an Adobe issue after all. Someone at Microsoft musta loved Oscar Rodgers.

Jobs stay in queue and keep printing until you cancel them--then stops the print spooler...why?

My Printer: HP Photosmart C309a
My Laptop: HP G71 series
Operating System: Windows 7 (64 bit) but runs a lot of stuff on 32 bit
Problem: I print ONE copy of a multiple page document in Adobe Reader 9. I select even pages only (after which I would reinsert the pages and tell it to print odd pages only, to get the other side). The printer makes a sound indicating the job is finished, I remove my pages to collate them, and then the printer continues to print the job again without so much as a keystroke.
Naturally, you find the printer in the devices on the control panel, click "see what's printing" and highlight the job and cancel it.
Then somehow it turns off my print spooler.
I have tried everything suggested on other forums, like
restart the laptop/restart the printer
going to c\windows\system32\spool\printers and deleting whatever is hung up in there (usually a shockwave file).
Going to Services\print spooler \properties and making sure the settings are set to automatic
Uninstall\reinstall latest driver and software
Switching from Adobe Reader 10 to Adobe Reader 9
Use System Restore to try to reset the system to a previous state.
Run Trend Micro to check for viruses and spyware--nothing shows up.
I am positive the pdf doc is NOT the problem, because I can print it on my husband's laptop multiple times over with no problems.
Does anyone have this problem as well? Has anyone found a genuine solution other than manually canceling print jobs in queue and constantly restarting the print spooler?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hi,
I believe your printer is wirelessly connected to your computer, right?!
What's the current printer software version installed in your laptop computer?!
to see: click start>control panel>uninstall a program under Programs then it will tell you the software version like HP Photosmart c309a v13 or v14.
If the software version is v13, click here to download and install the current software.
IF all things still fail, try to use the workaround provided by HP in this link. It says:

Your HP printing product can operate sufficiently using an alternate print driver, although there might be some limitations. For instance, some buttons on the product control panel might not function, but the product prints normally from the computer. If the solutions in this document do not solve the issue, download and install an alternate print driver.
Follow these steps to install the HP Deskjet 990C print driver.
NOTE: These steps install the new print driver using the same port that the product already uses. The product functions normally with multiple drivers on the same port.
Find the port that the product already uses.
Click the Windows icon ( ), and then click Control Panel . The Control Panel opens in a new window.
Click Hardware and Sounds .
Click Printers . The Printers folder opens.
Right-click the product icon ( ), and then click Properties . The Propertieswindow opens.
Click the Ports tab. A window opens with a list of ports. The port for the product has a checkmark or a highlight.
Note the name of the port indicated for the product.
Close the Properties window, and then continue with the next steps.
Click Add a Printer in the menu bar at the top of the Printers window. The Windows Add Printer Wizard opens.
Click Add a local printer .
Select Use an existing Port .
Click the drop-down menu next to Use an existing Port , and then select the port that you noted earlier in these steps.
Click Next .
In the Manufacturer pane, click HP .
In the Printers pane, click HP Deskjet 990c , and then click Next . (IF YOU CANT FIND DESKJET 990C, JUST CLICK WINDOWS UPDATE WITHIN THIS WINDOW. THEN FIND DESKJET 990C and then click next)
Type a name for the new printer in the Printer name box, or keep the default name.
Select Set as the default printer , and then click Next . A window opens with a progress bar as the printer installs. Then a new window opens.
Click Do not share this printer , and then click Next .
If you want to print a test page, click the Print test page button.
Click Finish to complete the driver installation.
Try printing again, but select HP Deskjet 990c from the Print dialog box.
If this solves the issue, follow these steps to use the HP Deskjet 990c print driver whenever you send print jobs to the product.
In the program you are using, select the option to print. The Print dialog box opens.
Click the Name drop-down menu, and then select HP Deskjet 990c .
Change print settings as desired in the Paper size , Quality , and Paper type drop-down menus.

I am using iphoto 6.06 for my intel imac. I have been trying to print pictures from iphoto and i keep getting a message that states " the picture you are trying to print is in the iphoto library" what can i do to be able to print a photo from iphoto

I am using iphoto 6.06 for my intel imac. I have been trying to print pictures from iphoto and i keep getting a message that states " unreadable file: the following file could not be imported. the file is in the iphoto library folder" also when i try to print a picture from iphoto i get a message that says "no page was selected"
not sure what happened but i can pnly print when i drop the photo onto my desktop as an 8.5 x 11 size picture and i am trying to print 4x6's

Since the new library gives you the same message log into another user account on your Mac and see if you can run iPhoto without getting that message. If you get that message there also a reinstall of iPhoto seems indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,

Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally and apply all available updates to it.

Printing problems with Elements and iPhoto on OSX 10.5.7

I am having problems with printing photos on my printer (Canon iP4000) since getting the new iMac with OSX (10.5.7) and using Photoshop Elements 6 and iPhoto. The Canon printer driver (and all my other data) were copied to my Mac by the techs at the Apple store from which I purchased the iMac. (I previously had a Mac G4 with OSX 10.4.11 Panther.)
Photos that used to come out crystal clear and brilliant on the printer from the G4, now are faint with kind of a white veil. When I try to print in Elements, I get a message that says "Some PostScript specific print settings (Interpolation, Calibration, Encoding) will be ignored since you are printing to a non-PostScript printer." I really have no idea what that means. Anybody?
Text printing comes out fine, both from word processing documents and web pages. I am using the latest printer driver (4.8.3) for the iP4000 (probably 4 years old or so), and there are no new driver downloads available for it. I trashed the Canon software/drivers and reinstalled, to no avail.
Canon Support has been helpful and have made many suggestions, but none has worked. I tried printing with Canon's EasyPhotoPrint app, and the photos print fine. So the problem appears to be a compatibility of the printer with Elements 6 and iPhoto.
Has anyone else had this experience? Does anyone have an opinion if this means I need to get a new printer? If so, any suggestions on a good, moderately priced one for Leopard on the iMac that will definitely work with Elements 6 and iPhoto?

The v4.8.3 driver she has is the latest version Canon has supplied.
Given the driver is working okay from some other applications, there has to be something amiss with the colour management of iPhoto and PSE6.
For iPhoto, as a test I would suggest the Color Options > Color Correction is set to None to see how this impacts the printed image. Then I would try the BJ Standard and ColrSync settings to see how the output is affected.
During the Color Options trial, ensure the Quality & Media > Media Type is set to the appropriate paper type, such as Photo Paper and the Print Mode be set to Top Quality Photo. With regards to the Media Type setting, some of the paper stocks have a profile associated with them. If you use Photo paper but use the Plain setting, then you will get a washed out print.

When I try to print pictures from Iphoto 11 I get a message saying no themes are installed and I cannot print. This never happened on previous versions of iPhoto.

When I try to print photos in Iphoto 11 I get a message saying there are no themes installed and it will not let me print. This never happened in previous Iphoto versions and there is no link to get themes. How can I get these themes?

Reinstall.
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

I have a Mac OSx 10.6.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and can no longer order printed photo albums unless i install new version of iPhoto. But reviews of new iPhoto so negative. Should I install it or steer clear of it??

I have a Mac OSx 10.6.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and can no longer order printed photo albums unless I update to new version of iPhoto. But reviews of new iPhoto are so negative that I am uncomfortable about buying it. Will it be fine or should I steer clear of trouble and accept that i can no longer publish my photos?

iPhoto '11 is working well.
The reviews usually only show the comments of people who do not like the changed features.
To get an idea what to expect, when you upgrade, look at the iPhoto '11 support sites.

PDF Printing Issue (Converting to Spool and back to PDF)

Hi,
I have a document which has minimum of 25 pages. This document is designed using BSP. When i print this document in DEV this is printed without any issue, but when we print in QA this doesn't print and keeps going on and on and finally we get session time out.
And now we got some information that this issue occurs because of Memory Management. So now we have to convert the data first to spool and from the spool we have to convert the same to PDF and then try to print.
I have no idea about the spool. So could someone help me regarding this.
