WIN 7 Spooler always down! All Printers is missing & not working

Try this :
Check for the spooler whether it’s turn on in services
1. Start > Start Search > services.msc
2. If spooler is not on, turn it on.
If after turn on, it turn off automatically, proceed to step 3,
if can turn on go to step 4
3. Start > Start Search > C:\Windows\System32\spoolsv.exe (Right click > Properties)
4. Click on Security Tab > Advanced > Owner.
Take ownership of the file and give full permission to the file.
Once done, close everything and try to start the service again.
5. Start > Start Search > cmd (Run as Admin)
6. del /Q C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS\*.* > Press Enter
7. Once done, try to start the spooler in Services

or create a batch file "reset1020.bat"
in Command Prompt
copy con reset1020.bat
del /Q C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS\*.*
net stop spooler
net start spooler
^Z or F6

or use notepad & put all lines in the "reset1020.bat"
del /Q C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS\*.*
net stop spooler
net start spooler

run reset1020.bat as administrator for fix the problem.

The problem is caused by the HP1020 or HP1080 Printer Driver. I had not find a solution for that until now!
