Quark Xpress shows err "Spooler Subsystem App needs to close" - HP Laserjet Pro P1606DN

Purchased a new HP Laserjet Pro P1606 DN network printer. Installation went smooth on all computers.
When people tried to print from Quark Xpress, the document get spooled and loaded to the print queue and then we get the error "Spooler subsystem app experienced a problem and needs to close"
The recovery has been set to "restart the service" for print spooler.
Users are able to print from other applications.
Just found a thread that stated to disable Advanced Printer settings on the Advanced tab of Properties. Checked but the issue still persists.
Users are on Windows XP and printer was using the smart install from the printer.
Kindly advise if there is something else to tweak in the printer properties or something to tweak in Quark Xpress v6.1.
thanks in advance for the support

Hi Opp1,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I understand you are unable to reinstall the printer software.
I will be happy to help you.
The print spooler is part of the Windows operating system and if it doesn't stay running the printer software won't install or print.
You could try the following steps to see if this will resolve the issue.
Normally with spooler problems the first thing to do is to clear the print queue.
Open a Run window (Windows Logo key+R), type cmd and press Enter.
Now type these commands, which are in capitals for clarity:
NET STOP SPOOLER and press Enter
DEL %SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\PRINTERS\*.* and press Enter
NET START SPOOLER and press Enter
EXIT and press Enter
If you are still having issues with the print spooler stopped then right click on the start button, left click on explore, open the windows folder, open system32 folder, open the spool folder, open the printer's folder, then delete everything on the right window.
Then go back and try and start the print spooler again.
Run a full uninstall of the printer software. Disconnect the USB cable.
To uninstall from CD:
Go start and select computer.
Right click on the CD for the printer and left click open in a new window.
Double click on uninstall.
Uninstall printer from the C Drive.
Go to start, computer, c:, windows, program files or program files x86, HP, printer name. Double click uninstall. Restart the computer.
Check to make sure the print spooler is running.
Ran the installation again. Don't connect the USB cable until prompted.
If the print spooler stops again you will need to contact the computer manufacturer to resolve this issue.
Hope this helps.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
Have a great weekend!

  • I'm getting the "spooler subsystem app has encountered and error" message

    Greetings. I have one XP machine wired to a router, and one  Win7 Laptop connected wirelessly.  I install the printer driver for the Deskjet D2530 on the XP machine, and I can print. Then I install the printer driver for the Deskjet D2530 on the laptop, and go to "add Printer". I see the printer on the network, try add it, and the installation completes. Then when I attempt to print, the error message comes up on the XP machine. 
    The next step was to try the "hp print and scan tool'. I ran it on the XP machine and NFF; on the Win7 laptop, it said there was a driver conflict and that I should uninstall the printer driver software, and install the "full featured" version. I did that, and no difference.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Microsoft has a fix for this on XP operating systems:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/810894
    if that link does not work look for this phrase on the Microsoft site:

  • Spooler SubSystem App error message when printing

    I am having troubles printing with my HP Photosmart C4450 printer. The printer will not finish printing a job and will come up with the "Spooler SubSystem App" error message. The printer remains "frozen" after this message appears on my computer. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the printer witht the latest driver, downloading all the associated updates and running the HP Print Diagnostic tool to no avail. The spooler is indeed set to automatic and is started. I am running Windows XP on my computer. Any insight into this problem is appreciated. Thank you.

    Have you tried with system PLD?
    Thanks,

  • Fixed spooler subsystem app stopped working

    Hi All,
    I had "spooler subsystem app stopped working..." and found solution that may help you to fix your case.
    I don't know some how vista turn off LDP port after installing new printer driver and leaves only Internet client port only. That why the printer spooler service failed to start. Solution is:
    1. Go to Programs and Features in Control panel > click Turn Windows features on or off
    2. click + sign of Print services
    3. Select LPD and LPR. You should remove Internet Printing Client. > restart your PC to ensure there is no error of spooler service.
    4. Add your printer driver again.
    It worked for me. Let try.
    Chan

    Usually the driver crashes and preempts the print spooler. the famous HP LJ 1020 made an expert on printing, because the driver is faulty. read on... IF you have the HP LaserJet 1020 then the fix is found all the way down on this reply.

  • Spooler SubSystem App stopped working and was closed????

    Does anyone know what causes this problem and what I can do to fix it?

    It's a known problem. Do you have any HP printers installed? A quick fix, if you are comfortable editing the registry is:
    Start -> Run - Regedit -> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SYSTEM -> ControlSet001 ->
    Control -> Print -> Environments -> Windows NT x86 -> Version -3 -> Remove
    All Printers From Here (Delete HP First See If that resolves the problem)
    That should fix the SubSystem App crashing, after you delete the registry entry, start the printer spooler and reinstall the printer drivers, most likely Vista will have these drivers built in.

  • "Spooler Subsystem App has encountered a problem and needs to close"

    I get this error when trying print over my wireless network with my new HP Deskjet F4280 all in one. Desktop hooked up ehternet to a D-Link WBR-1310 router, Laptop running wireless on router. Both computers running XP home. Setup network on both computers with network wizard, installed all HP software/updates on both computers.
    Tried connecting printer to the other computer and printing the other direction with the same results. Used HP live chat help last night with no results. Tried all the Microsoft automatic and manual fixes after searching for the error. Turned on printer sharing as usual.
    When the error occurs it stops print spooling service on the computer the printer is connected to directly. Printer works fine on which ever computer it's connected to, just have the problem when trying to print over the network.

    For those who still have this problem, I found the solution on this forum -thanks MP2000 (see http://h30434.www3.hp.com/psg/board/message?board.id=Networking&message.id=839#M839)
    Go to the computer that the HP F4280 printer is connected to.
    Click on Start --> Printer and Faxes
    Right click on HP Deskjet F4280 and select Properties
    Click on Advanced tab
    Uncheck "Enable advanced printing features"
    click OK
    And it works!

  • HP Laserjet Pro CM 1415fn crashes and spooler service stops

    Hi Guys, 
    Please assist. I have an HP Laserjet Pro CM1415fn multifunction printer installed on an XP OS. Recently the printer started to print giberish when I tried to print from any application (word, notepad, wordpad, image and fax viewer etc). I also noticed a popoup error message - Run a DLL as an App error. I unistalled the printer software and drivers and restarted, this after running a scan with malware bytes (no detections), and I was unable to get the printer to re-installed after. I keep getting a RPC service not found and Spooler subsystem App has encountered a problem and needs to close. I have checked that all services are running, but nothing is working. After much prodding and poking, I eventually noticed that all errors are directly associated with hppccompio.dll. Even explorer crashes when I try to access printer properties. What should I do? I hope ifnormation was sufficient enough. Also, printer is connected via USB.

    Here is a link to the most up-to-date list of web services supported printers. 
    HP Web Connected Printers and Supported Cloud Services
    Also, we have the same model of printer here that you are having issues with. I pulled up the HP Printer Control app on my phone and it recognized it right away.
    Did you have the phone connected to the WiFi (the same network that the printer is on) when you were trying to use the app? Just like with AirPrint, if it is not connected to the same network as the printer, it is not going to recognize it. If it still doesn't work, then you may need to make some changes to your network configuration. In a perfect world, everything would just connect and you would be done with it. In reality, you have thousands of different routers and completely different network configurations. A lot of the time, issues like this can be resolved by simply setting a Static IP address for the printer and using a reliable public DNS server vs. the one provided by your ISP.
    You mentioned that you should have total control from the native apps in iOS and Android, but that's just not how it works. That functionality is up to Apple and Google to implement. HP has no control over how they design their mobile OS and what functionality they provide. The only reason AirPrint works the way it does, is because HP took advantage of the functionality already included in the OS. 
    If you would like to try setting a Static IP & DNS, follow the steps that I have listed below.
    First, you will need a network summary page.
    1. Press the settings button on the screen of the printer. It is the second icon on the top, with a wrench as it's picture.
    2. Next, select reports.
    3. After you are in the reports menu, select "Network Summary". It will now print off that page.
    After you have that page, now you have the correct information to set a Static IP and DNS.
    1. Open the Embedded Web Server (EWS) for the printer by typing the IP address into the browser’s address bar.
    2. In the EWS, select the “Networking” tab. 
    3. On the left side of the page, click "IPV4 Configuration".
    4. Click the radio button labeled "Manual".
    5. Enter the IP Address, Default Gateway, and Subnet Masks listed on the network summary page into the appropriate fields.
    6. For the Primary DNS, enter the 8.8.8.8. Enter 8.8.4.4 for the Secondary DNS.
    7. Click 'Apply' at the bottom of the page. Once the page has reloaded, click it one more time to make sure the changes are applied.
    Best of luck,
    Kyle

  • Import Process Server has encountered a problem and needs to close

    Hello,
    Loaded an AVI-from the desktop, as that is where my project file and scratch disk go, about 7.5 GB's, and when I scroll through it or try to render, I get this little message:Import Process Server has encountered a problem and needs to close
    Windows XP Pro/ 64 Edition
    Dell Precision T7500
    Intell(R)Xeon(R) CPU
    E5520 @ 2.27 GHz

    Thanks so much in advance,
    Tim S.

    Jim,
    Thanks for all your help.  Sure enough, an MOV file works just fine and I may have tracked down the problem: the video, I'm sure caused from the source tape, lags towards the end-it seemed like every time I scrolled towards the end of the AVI it would crash.  Still seems mighty peculiar that it would crash the system each time.
    Thanks,
    Tim S.

  • My iPad 2 shows I have 7 apps that need to be updated and when I go into my App Store it won't pull up anything for my updates how can I fix this????

    My iPad 2 shows I have 7 apps that need to be updated and when I go into my App Store it won't pull up anything for my updates how can I fix this????

    It seems Apple is having some issues at their end. There have been hundreds of posts on the forum with the same problem.

  • My iPad shows that I have apps that need updated but apps do not update.

    My App Store shows I have apps needing updated but nothing is there to update. I have signed out, shutdown & restarted but still nothing. This worked last time, but now same issue again.

    Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. This is a problem that Apple has to fix. If you look around the forum, you will see many, many discusssions about this and they have been going on for a few days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this is a workaround - for the time being.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.
