How to fix network printer driver problem The driver will still be loaded by the spooler after removing a printer from the registry. One needs to stop (I assume you are here since the spooler is not currently running) the spooler and restart after any registry change. the print driver registry key for 32bit machines is located under. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Drivers\Version-3\PRINTDRIVERNAME If the print driver uses a custom print processor it’s sitting under this location. You would need to look in the inf file that came with the printer to know if it uses a custom print processor. Winprint is the print processor that most inbox drivers use. Don’t remove this entry. One normally does not need to touch this key, just the driver. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Print Processors
