Windows Print Spooler

The Windows Print Spooler is a service in your computer's operating system that manages printing tasks. When you send a document to print, it doesn't go straight to the printer. Instead, the spooler temporarily stores it in a queue, along with any other printing jobs. This ensures that the printer processes them in order and allows you to continue working without interruption. If the printer is busy, the spooler holds your job until it's ready to print. Essentially, it helps make printing smoother and more efficient by organizing and coordinating print requests.
