I look for the printer spooler fil and i do not have one. i have a spooler file that is on automatic but there is nothing in it. I have try to download mr. fix it through windows and i get a wierd exc error. Also it doesn't seem like it's detecting my printer. I have all the cables in correctly and power is on but don't know what the problem is. Please someone help me. This is so frustrating. :(
