error 1068

ever since my most recent xp update, my printers wont work and i get a 1068
error, i have tried a system restore two times with no success, i have run
service.msc and tried to restart the spooler manually, the problem appears to
be a nonfunctional lexbce server (old lexmark printer), since this is part of
the dependency the print spooler wont work and therefore the computer doesnt
recognize the printers or allow me to reinstall their software, please
advise, thanks bruce

Hi,

It appears that one of the depended service has failed to start or is
disabled.

Please try:
1. go to start, run, and type services.exe. double-click on the Spooler
service.
check the dependencies and take note of any dependencies other than RPCSS

2. Try to repair any services that do not start that may be causing the
Spooler
service to fail to start (such as lxbce service from lexmark)

3. If necessary, Navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Spooler
The DependOnService value by default should be set to RPCSS
Delete any offending values, such as "lexbces" so that the spooler
service can
start sucessfully again.

Thank you

Eric
