Event ID 2005 — LPR Service Status

  • Article

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

The Line Printer Remote (LPR) service enables the computer to print to a printer or print server that uses the Line Print Daemon (LPD) service, which is commonly used by UNIX servers.

Event Details

Product: Windows Operating System
ID: 2005
Source: Microsoft-Windows-Spooler-LPRMON
Version: 6.0
Symbolic Name: LPRLOG_CANNOT_OPEN_SPOOL_FILE
Message: The Line Printer Remote (LPR) print monitor failed to open a temporary file while spooling output for port %1. This can occur if the system is low on disk space, if the spool folder is write-protected, or if the LPR service does not have write permissions to the spool folder.

Resolve

Check the spool folder

To resolve this issue, perform the following tasks:

  • Make sure that the spool folder is available and has enough available disk space.
  • Confirm that the spool folder has the necessary permissions:
    • System - Full Control
    • Administratiors - Full Control
    • Users - Read & execute; List folder contents; Read
    • TrustedInstaller - List folder contents
  • If the spool folder is encrypted, make sure that the Print Spooler service has the proper key to access the folder.

Verify

To verify that you resolved the problem, print the document again to a shared printer that uses the Line Printer Daemon (LPD) service. This tests printing using the Line Printer Remote (LPR) service on the client computer.
