Errror 1068, Print Spooler Not Running

I've searched around the internet trying to fix this issue. I have a Lexmark x6170 All In One printer hooked up to the USB port and Win XP Pro. No printer shows up in control panels and when I try to add a printer I get a Message Operation could not be completed. Print Spooler not running. I have gone into msconfig and the print spooler is stopped and I see no way to restart it. I'm using Open Office instead of MS Word or works, I don't know if that could have caused a problem? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver, restoring the system to a previous date and so on. Nothing works.

Am I going to have to re install windoze? I hope not :)

Someone please help me. . .

The Remote Procedure Call process is listed as required and is not running or it's stopped but I could not see any way to restart it or to make it run. I read somewhere that the print spooler file may be corrupted and needs to be deleted and restored from the installation disk? I'm not sure I understand how to do that.
