Spoolsv.exe / print spooler subsystem hogging RAM and CPU

Dont know if this will be any help or not, But as a guess, it may be old printers that have not been uninstalled and their "leftovers"  are causing the trouble.

Had a Customer whose computers I cleaned out, and all the actual printers ran a lot better.

Some you can do a clean out several ways, others ( home versions) it is actually easier to dive into the reg and manually remove them.

Stating the Obvious When completed, reboot and check the actual printer still prints.

I have not gone that far yet, but no harm in giving it a go, will test it out on a single computer first and see how it goes i guess.
