Customer recently upgraded from Windows 7 but printed fine to a networked Lexmark MS810dn for a month before it quit. &nbsp;Others in the network can print to it.<br />
The printer says that it has the wrong driver but you can't install the new driver, update the driver or remove the printer from Windows. &nbsp;Can't start the service. &nbsp;Saw another post that said to take the HTTP out of the registry setting.....still doesn't work.<br />
Windows repair can't start the service either.<br />
I think we may have to manually delete the driver.

Windows 10 Print Spooler won't start

A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.

Windows 10 is a personal computer operating system featuring the "universal application architecture" (UAP); apps can be designed to run across multiple devices with nearly identical code, including PCs, tablets, smartphones, embedded systems, Xbox One, Surface Hub and HoloLens. Windows 10 also includes a virtual desktop system, a window and desktop management feature called Task View, the Microsoft Edge web browser, support for fingerprint and face recognition login, voice-based search (Cortana), new security features for enterprise environments, and DirectX 12 and WDDM 2.0 to improve the operating system's graphics capabilities for games.
