Resolved Error 3: System cannot find the path specified

Hutch · 2014/01/06

A couple of days ago I accidently wiped out the MBR. This is now fixed and everything has installed perfectly except my Cannon Pixma MP610 printer. Each time I try to install it I get the following message:
Windows could not start the Print Spooler Service on local computer. Error 3: The system cannot find the path specified.
I've never come across this before so can anyone out there help?

Canon has great customer support. Call their 800 number if all else fails.

First make sure you BACK UP THE REGISTRY!
