Having struggled with this issue on Win7 machines in the past and now Server 2008 R2. I have the confirmed fix, You need to make the executable run as an administrator and not trusted installer.
go to c:\windows\system32\spools v.exe
Right click>properties>security> advanced>o wner>edit
make adminstrator owner>ok
On the security tab>highlight adminstrator>edit>click full control>apply>ok
go to services and restart Print spooler
go to c:\windows\system32\spools
Right click>properties>security>
make adminstrator owner>ok
On the security tab>highlight adminstrator>edit>click full control>apply>ok
go to services and restart Print spooler
@ denhome do you need to set the print spooler service to log on as: administrator account as well, or does setting the owner of the .exe and giving it full permission take care of that?
Remove all physical printers.
Once the printer(s) is deleted, go to start>, and type CMD (Right Click, and "Run As Administrator"
net stop spooler
net start spooler
Click Start, and type "Print Management">Print Servers>Local>Drivers>Rt Click a driver and select "Remove Driver Package", and remove them all.....
Then try and reinstall the network/local printers....
