If your computer is fast enough - try turning off the spooler.  Without a spooler, return of control to your foreground applications
may be slowed a bit, but you may find that you hardly notice.  Go to My Computer/Printers/ and adjust the properties of your printer
Properties/Details/Spool Settings...click the Radio Button that says "Print directly to the printer" ...no more spooler, no more
spool32 errors.  You can always re-enable the spooler for big jobs or for special situations.
