When I sent anything to the printer I find that it does not go into the print queque and does not print. I have tried the print and scan doctor which sometimes fixes a port connection and other times has no effect and the test page does not print. I have checked wifi connection etc and everything says that the printer is ready to print. Every so often something will be sent to the printer and print no problem without anything being changed. Any advice would be very appreciated!

The Services menu opens.
4) Right-click Print Spooler and select Stop.
