    Is this an HP laserjet driver?

    No, it is a Samsung CLX-2160 color laser printer driver.

    I assume you downloaded the version 3.04 driver. Wow I see the driver
    download file is 100MB.

    I have the same exact issue with an Epson CX 8400. I have the most current
    driver installed and the Dell support people couldn't fix the problem and
    suggested I call Epson--which I will do when I get a free hour.

    If anyone else figures out this problem, please let me know!!

    Thank you.

    I hit this error today with an HP driver. The nice thing about that is
    there are a couple of HP driver developers who work here who were able to
    get symbols files from Boise to debug the problem. Basically the print
    driver is corrupting the memory in the spooler process and causes the
    install process within the spooler to terminate. If the spooler did not die
    with this driver, it will eventually.

    Re: Add printer with error 0x000006be in Windows Vista

    I think the printer and printer driver are of NO issue to this
    problem. The problem is deeper than a specific printer driver. I
    have a new Sony Vaio running Windows Vista Business. I get the same
    problem. I cannot add printers (of several kinds) without getting the
    Microsoft Message:

    "Spooler SubSystem App stopped working and was closed. A problem
    caused the application to stop working correctly. Windows will notify
    you if a solution is available." And an error message comes on that
    gives "Operation could not be completed. Error 0x000006be."
    Microsoft has no help in the Knowledge Base or tech help site.

    The Windows Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Services / Print
    Spooler can be set to automatic and started but does not stay
    started. It shows started but apparently is stopped. It does the
    same in Manuel and Started. It does not stay started even though it
    shows started.

    I wish Microsoft would get this solved. If anyone finds a solution,
    please post it or email me.
    Thanks

    Most likely there is a faulting print driver installed

    Bruce Sanderson has some helpful tips for removing the print drivers

    Re: Add printer with error 0x000006be in Windows Vista


    I, too, am getting this error message but here's how: I have both an HP
    laser jet 1018 and HP Photosmart 2570 hooked up to my HP dv6253
    operating with Vista Home Premium. Both printers work fine on all
    applications until I tried to print a jpeg picture. When I hit print
    the option of the laser jet 1018 is not an option only the 2570 is there
    to print so I have to act like I am installing a new printer which is
    when the 0x000006be error comes into play.

    With which application are you trying to print the JPEG image?

    Re: Add printer with error 0x000006be in Windows Vista


    I am just accessing the jpeg picture within the pictures file residing
    in
    Vista. In other words I hit Start, Pictures, then click on a picture
    and then hit the print button instead of being able to access both of my
    printers (1018 and 2570) only the 2570 printer is available. All other
    applications such as Excel, Word, Quicken, etc. have both printers
    available to print from. Strange...

    Verify that Everyone has print access on the security tab of the 1018
