I wonder if anyone has had a similar problem.
I am running windows 7 pro, 64 bit with a local printer.
Last week, I tried to print a patient note from a.c. and the printer seems to freeze. When I opened the printer to look at the cue the message was "printer spooling". It was only after shutting down and rebooting that I was able to print. This week, I have had the same problem trying to print PDF's or Word documents. Both Adobe Reader and Word will give a "program not responding" (and that same printer spooling message in the printer cue). After shutting down the offending program I was still able to run a printer test sheet, print web pages, an XPS document saved to the desktop, and print pages from wordpad.
I think this is a Print Spooler problem. Since my computer contains the shared AC database rebooting during the daytime is not practical.
Any thoughts?
Thanks you.
