Have you ever run into the situation where you try to print something and nothing happens? You wait for it to print, but the job doesn’t go through? There are a ton of reasons why a print job may not actually print, but one of the common causes is that the printer queue has a stuck print job. FixPrintS can reset and clear the Print Spooler queue and restart the spooler service It can clean the ” %systemroot%\System32\spool\printers\” directory too , after run it will give an info message on system tray
Print spooler service is a service which gives the print command to printer. It is manage the multiple print commands and gives to the print one by one when last print is done. Printer spooler service works with two system files spoolss.dll / spoolsv.exe and one service. Users wants to take print out however they getting the error message “Print spooler service has stopped please restart the service, the local print spooler is not running. please restart the spooler” You can use Our portable freeware “Fix print spooler” to solve such errors
With your suggestions We can add it extra features and develop it further

My old printer died and I purchased an Epson L3110. What a nightmare! Every now and then the monster refused to print. I asked Epson for a solution and never answered. The I found this Fix Print Spooler v1.1 and it works!
Thank you Sordum!
I second Sean McCormack October 14, 2019 (above) idea.
Right click, new shortcut, target :
«
C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c net stop spooler && del %systemroot%\system32\spool\printers\*.shd && del %systemroot%\system32\spool\printers\*.spl && net start spooler
»
Put a name, and that’s it. You can right-click on it to go on Properties and change the icon.
WOW ! incredible goodies. RECOMMENDATION – you have sooo much to offer… you really should consider an all-in-one launch utility – where all your solutions can be easily viewed and launched. Similar to how Nirsoft has their NirLAUNCHER.
Thanks Volodymyr
Hello sordum.org team!
I use this utility for few printers connected via network and it does it’s job fine (Win 7 x64).
Thank you for your great work!
Last day when I try to print something from my printer but nothing happens? I checked it properly but unable to understand the issue. Than i read you post and try your method and it really works.
Thanks
I don’t how you did but you people are doing good job.
we did not tested it on network enviroment but works well on Personal Computers
Can this work on a network printer? Do I have to run this from the windows print server, or can I give this to a user and grant them access to the printer?
