Have a Win 2K O/S and every time I log on a Spoolsv.exe error pops up. I tried unstalling the printer and also unstalling the exe file at administrator tool and installing back but it seems like it wont work. Need a fix ASAP. Thanks!
Printer >>> Epson 440

Hi, what you could try is to turn off spool printing.

Go to:
Start
Settings
Printers
Double click on the Epson icon
Select 'Printer'
Select 'Properties'
Select 'Details'
Select 'Spoll Settings'
Then de-select 'Spool Print Jobs So That Program Finishes Fatser'
Then click OK

By doing this you data will be sent straight to the printer.

Best of luck

Able to install the printer for the first time and when computer re-started the spoolsv.exe pops up as an error and there's no printer installed.
