This error might be because Remote Procedure Control services are not started on your PC, or there may be some dependency error. Follow the given methods to resolve the error:

Revert the print spooler services to RPCSS:

2. Type the following commands one by one and press ‘Enter’ after every command:

‘Net stop spooler.’

‘sc config spooler depends= RPCSS.’

‘Net start spooler.’

‘exit.’

Another method is:

1. In the ‘Run’ tab, type ‘Regedit.exe.’
2. Open the following path: ‘HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Spooler’
3. Now double-click on ‘DependOnService’
4. Remove the written data and write ‘RPCSS’
5. Next, close the ‘Registry editor’
6. In the spool folder, delete all the jobs.
