start -> run

type services.msc

locate 'Print Spooler' and click start service in the left pain, or right click the item and select properties and start it from there.

if you want it to start everytime you start windows, change the startup type to automatic.

Absolutely and completely off topic, but does anyone remember back to Windows 1.x and 2.x when the utility that you used to manage your printing was actually called 'Print Spooler', and you used to get a little icon with 'Spooler' at the bottom of the screen every time you sent something to print? (that was actually the spooler utility running minimised).

Just a little nostalgic moment there.
