This error is caused by one or more Windows services being disabled. To fix it, you will need to go to Start > Run, and enter "services.msc" (without quotes). Here, you will see a list of services, their description, and whether or not they are running. The most common services that give people this error message are the "Help and Support Service" (for launching Help), Windows Image Acquisition Service (for cameras and scanners), and the Print Spooler service (for printers). Some programs and drivers, such as for Lexmark printers, may also have services that need turned on. Right-click the service you need, select "Properties", and use the drop box to change its starup type from "Disabled" to "Automatic." You can also start the service here, or you can reboot your computer.

Why does error 1068 the dependency service or group failed to start' appear when starting the printer service?
: A 1068 is a service dependency error. Print Spooler can't start because it thinks a service it depends on is not running. shortcut: start-run-"services.msc" Go into services and check its dependencies, it should just be the RPC service, which you shouldn't be able to stop, check that RPC is running Double click print spooler and click the dependencies tab. See if there are any other dependencies set besides rpc. If so you will want to find them in services and make sure they are set to automatic and are running (will probably need to start them). Then try to start "Print Spooler" service, should work. May need to reinstall printer drivers then. One other possibility that I can think of would involve a DLL that needs to be registered but try the above first. What brand and model of printer are you using?
