To make sure it is automatically turned on the next time you run your machine:
  • Right click the Printer Spooler service and choose Properties

Spooler service stops running. I re-started it manually but it crashes a few seconds after. The problem started after I installed the HP LJ 1018 printer

Spooler service may crash to bad driver.
Update and re Re-install printer driver(s).

good luck

pls. vote for better sharing... thank you

Hp laser jet 1150 have stopped printing

Check the spooler is running:
"Control panel"
"administrative tools"
"Services"
Double click "print spooler"
Check that startup type is "automatic"
Check the "service status" to see if the spooler is "started". If not select "start" (if it's already started try stopping then restarting the service"
Try to Print.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if it does, and if not, please provide the EXACT message you receive when you try to print.

HP laserjet 1018 service

Have you installed the new drivers for your HP?

Personally, on all HP Printers, I use only HP products, mainly Jetdirect Print Servers, but you might try creating a TCP Port Printer (via your Printer Install Wizard) and use that. You only need to know the IPAddress of the DLink and the Drivers for the HP Printer.
