Guys im trying to install an HP Printer on a Windows Xp operating System

I downloaded the full version software installer on HP website
When i run the software to do the installation there was an error message
(The installation cannot be done , Printer Spooler is not running check the services and start the spooler )
so i did that ,, i checked the services and then click the printer spooler but there is an error message
" Print Spooler Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed ...
"
Is there any other way to start the spooler ?
Thanks
 
yah but no luck .. there is too hard

I also tried system restore .. but nogo..
Im gonna re-install the operating system..

So the print spooler service is running? Are its dependencies running?

Dependencies should be the same in XP. Make sure all of the above are set to auto and running.

Well if it and the dependencies are running and the service is visible in the processes list then you might have a program keeping you from installing the driver.
 
Oh yan youre right .. well i already did try the sc config spooler depend= RPCSS , its like refreshing the dependencies and its working now ,, the printer was installed last time but the driver is not there when i put that on Run it actually works , thanks for the help guys ,, really appreciated .
