Please follow this steps

1. Disconnect the USB cable from the computer.

2. You need to stop the printer spooler service as follows:
a. Click Start.
b. Type ‘cmd’ in the Start Search box. -Search results should appear-
d. Right‐click on ‘cmd’ in the search results, and then select Run as Administrator.-The command window will appear- (black window)
e. Type ‘net stop spooler’ into the command window and press <ENTER>.-The Print Spooler service should now be stopped-

Next, delete the printer drivers from the system as follows:

---Warning--- These steps will remove drivers for ALL printers installed on the system.

1) Click Start.
2) In the Start Search box, type ‘C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Drivers\w32x86’ and press <ENTER>.
3) Delete all the files and folders in this directory.
---NOTE--- There may be some files that will not delete because they are being used by Windows.
Click on the Ignore button to bypass deleting these files.

With the drivers uninstalled we now remove the Dell printer software.

1) Click Start.
2) Click Control Panel.
3) Click Programs.
4) Click Programs and Features.
5) Click the software related to the attached Dell printer to highlight it.
6) Click Uninstall/Change.
7) Follow through the prompts in order to remove the software.

You need to delete the Dell printer from the printers list.

1) Click Start
2) In the search bar type “Printers” and press <Enter>
3) Select any and all Dell printers and press <Delete>

Now delete any OLD drivers from the Server Properties Window.

1) Click Start
2) Type Printers into the search bar and press <Enter>
3) Press <ALT> to bring up the file menu.
4) Select Run As Administrator then Server Properties.
5) if the UAC window appears just click Continue.
6) Click on the Drivers tab.
7) Select any Dell printer drivers listed.
8) Click Remove, and then select Remove Driver and Driver Package.
9) Select Yes to confirm removal of the driver.
10) The system will now scan to see if it can remove the driver.
11) Once it has finished scanning click on Delete.

-Repeat the last 11 steps for each Dell printer driver that is installed.

At this point, you should be able to install the latest printer software for Vista from http://support.dell.com and be able to print successfully.
-NOTE- It’s been reported that some driver installations in Vista can take up to 10 minutes. Be patient and please wait for the driver to fully installed.

Hope this steps will resolve the problem

SOURCE: dell 922 aio printer

it's unusual to have same problem if completely uninstalled printer(removing printer, then uninstalling,after which use printer installation cd then re connect printer when prompted). If you have a spare usb port install software then connect printer to a different usb port. Lastly try; go to printers and faxes folder>right click on printer icon>properties>advanced, then click the radio button 'Print Directly to the Printer' and see if it prints. Also make sure this printer is set to default printer Try an updated driver, if any,from the Lexmark web site, as they are the same printer without the Dell logo. Your rating is appreciated.

SOURCE: Does anyone know how you can get the MAC to print to Dell 922????

As you can see here and here, if you go to the Dell site, the mac os is not supported for the 922 printer. You must use xp or 2000.
To get a printer that supports the mac os, search for 'mac compatible printers', instead of wasting your time fighting to use that one.

I hope this information allows you to resolve this issue. If you need further assistance, please post back with a comment to this thread.

SOURCE: Dell 922 print carrier stall.

Hi
hope it will work
Error code: 1200
This error code is commonly associated with the Dell 922 printer. Usually you might see the cartridge moving front and back and slamming itself against the printer. You need to tighten the strings located on the back of the printer and then it should work fine

Clean the carriage rail. This is the round chrome piece that the carriage assy that holds the cartridges rides on. Use a paper towel that is slightly moist.
Be sure to not force anything. Unplug the printer after you get the carts in the middle. Move them to one side and clean and then move them to the other and repeat.


Lift up the scanner to reveal the cartridge compartment; under the chrome rod on which the cartridges run there are two small gaps about 8cm apart. In the right one should sit the paper sensor which is a small black rod that hooks downwards; the problem I had was my sensor had bent up and out of the gap so all I had to do was bend it gently back into position using a small screwdriver.

Hope you get it to go.
Please come back and just gave a vote, it will gave me some satisfaction to know am helping some one so I will keep on helping.

Printer was not working due to driver problems. so i remove the prograame to reinstall. but i cant reinstall now. it says spooler service not running.what to do mate

well, in this situation you must first check out the services that are running.
you can open it as follows
start>"services"
(if using vista or 7)
you will find a list of running services.
check out the "print spooler" service and change the startup type to automatic. and restart the pc.
i think that will do fine..

My printer won't print. Can't open the program. Receive message "Print spooler not running". What to do?

go to Start> Run > CMD and press enter, then type 'net start spooler'
for further trouble shooting as to why it is not auto running, go to Start> ControlPanel (in classic veiw) > administrative tools > services
in there you will find print spooler, make sure that service is set to automatically run, you can also start the service from there and if it can't run it will give you the error as to why

My dell 922 printer say there is a paper jam but there is no paper stuck in the machine

check the full inside of the machine, even a small piece of paper in some of the spooler inside can cause the printer to malfunction.

Follow those instructions, but ignore that it is HP. The instructions should work for your Dell printer as well. If they don't work, let me know and I will pursue your issue further.
