Free printer spooler service

Fix Print Spooler is a free printing spooler service that helps resolve printer issues, much like HP Print and Scan Doctor and Brother Print&Scan. While Windows 10 has its own Print Spool function, it doesn’t always resolve the glitches. The main problem is dealing with errors that are outdated or not compatible with the operating system.

This program is designed to check what the printing issue is, see what’s happening in the queue, and reset it so that you can print without problems. It can also run an analysis of the spool directory, where it povides a message on the desktop tray with more information.

There may be times when you’ve sent a print request from your Windows computer to your printer, but nothing’s happening. Many reasons could be responsible for it, and restarting devices doesn’t always work. When you activate Fix Print Spooler, it checks the possible problems and notifies you of the error.

Check for errors

Clear the queue

In most cases, the printer has a list of requests in a queue that’s blocking the activity. It may be a printing request that you sent a few hours ago that’s caused the blockage. If this is the case, Fix Print Spooler will clear the queue and restart the tasks while eliminating the responsible request.

Send a print command

Once the problem is resolved, you can send a command to the printer with Fix Print Spooler. It’ll assess whether there are any issues with the request reaching the device, while also checking the spool directory. If all goes well, you’ll be printing again in no time.

Additional features

The features in Fix Print Spooler are limited to a few functions. There aren’t any advanced tools, but you may not even need them for its purposes. However, the developer is open to suggestions if there’s something else you need the program to do.

Unblock your printing

Fix Print Spooler may be a basic tool for clearing printing queues, but it gets the job done. There are only a few commands you can use, making it relatively straightforward. The program is downloadable for free for Windows devices.
