Sandy, just install one of these drivers from HP to pickup the hpbmini.dll
file that understands the Vista OS version. You do not have to have these
printers and you can delete the driver after the install and still retain
the updated file.

Alan,


I just got confirmed info from HP team, the LaserJet 4345 MFP (Version
60.053.762.32) and Color LaserJet 9500 MFP (version 60.52.267.21) are
drivers having the latest hpbmini.dll in their package on hp.com.


Thanks.

Wenzhong

Thanks much. I added the 4345 and my hpbmini.dll is now 18!

I have had the same problem, and I am glad that the others are resolved,
but I cannot get that far. I receive the same printing error when I try
and install the download from the HP website, it either won't start, or
it starts and tells me that the spooler isn't started, but of course
that is the whole problem. Every time it starts it ends when something
tries to use it. I even got an error from the HP website saying it
doesn't have, and won't plan to have Vista driver downloads because they
are included on the Vista sys.

Do you understand my problem? What am I doing wrong? Is someone able
to help me.

Thank you,
Lawrence

Hello,

Sorry, I thought you had access to the above threads. I will explai
as concisely as possible.

I have a computer with Vista (came pre-installed) on it and when I tr
and add a printer I get the Error:

\"WINDOWS CAN'T OPEN ADD PRINTER. THE LOCAL PRINT SPOOLER SERVICE I
NOT RUNNING. PLEASE RESTART THE SPOOLER OR RESTART THE MACHINE.\

This is because the spooler appears to start with windows and the
automatically turn off. When I go into services.msc and turn it o
again it appears it turns on, but turns off again within about 5min
(error 0x000006be). When I start the service again and then quickl
click add printer, after about 1 min delay, I get the following erro
message:

\"WINDOWS CAN'T OPEN ADD PRINTER OPERATION COULD NOT BE COMPLETE
(ERROR 0X000006BE).\

When I click add printer again, I get the first error message again
and the whole process repeats itself.

I tried downloading the HP printer driver you suggested but during th
installation I get the above errors. The first if I don´t previousl
start the spooler manually, and the second if I start the spoole
manually and then quickly change to the setup program to install HP´
new printer drivers. If I choose another downloaded driver, I unzip th
download but then can´t find any install files, and so can´t install th
driver at all.

I have spent a great deal of time searching and trying fixes for thi
problem, but thus far have been unsuccessfully. Very frustrating. Yo
were able to help others with a similar printer install problem, so
hope you can help me also. What do you suggest?

Thank you very much,
Lawrenc

Lawrence,

try this. It could be that a service that the Spooler service depend
on is not starting.

Remove all Print Spooler service dependencies other than the Remot
Procedure Call service.
