I get the same error msg and followed the net start spooler but i get a error in command that says "system error 1058 has occurred. The service cannot be started, eaither because it is disabled or because it has no enable devices associated with it." How do i fix this?

Oh, the infamous 1068 error.... (not 1058!). Lexmark printer service. See
Bruce Sanderson's article about how to COMPLETELY uninstall printer drivers
but pay particular attention to his last few paragraphs about the Lexmark
printer service.

Before starting, disconnect the printer. After cleaning, reboot. Download
a new set of drivers from the Lexmark website (www.lexmark.com), install the
software and do NOT reconnect the printer until the software tells you to do
so.
