SPOOL Error

Phaser 3250 Laser Printer Service Manual
Simultaneous Peripheral Operations Online (SPOOL) is the process Windows
uses to manage print jobs. Jobs are processed and then stored on the hard
disk until the printer is ready to accept them.
1. Insufficient disk space on the hard disk in the directory assigned for the
basic spool.
a. Delete any unnecessary files to provide more disk space for spool
storage.
2. If previous printing errors were not solved.
a. There may be files from previous failed print jobs on the hard disk with
the name in the form "*.jnl". Delete these files and reboot Windows to
restart the printer.
3. There may be a conflict with other drivers or programs.
a. Shut down all other programs except the current one, if possible.
4. When an application program or the printer driver is damaged.
a. After rebooting the computer, check for viruses, restore the damaged
files and reinstall the application program which is not working
properly.
5. Computer memory is insufficient to support printing.
a. Add more memory to the PC.
How to Delete the Data in the SPOOL Manager
In the SPOOL Manager, the installed drivers and the list of documents waiting
to be printed are shown. Select the document to be deleted and click Delete in
the menu.
If the job you are deleting is the current job, any data that has already been
transferred to the printer's memory will still be printed. If there is a problem
with the printer (out of toner, out of paper, etc...), the job may take a long time
to delete as it must wait for a time out.
