The print service starts automatically each time the system goes into multiuser mode and stops when you bring down the system. Under normal circumstances, you should never have to start or stop the print service manually. (For example, you do not have to stop the print service to change printer configurations or to add forms or filters.) However, you can stop the print service manually without stopping the operating system.
In the Printer Setup Manager, select Server Start or Server Halt (the inappropriate option is unavailable). Click on OK when asked for confirmation.
When you start the print service, the printer configurations, forms, and filters that were in effect when you stopped the print service are restored. It might take a minute or two for these printer configurations to be reestablished before any saved print requests start printing. Any print requests that did not finish printing when the scheduler stopped are printed in their entirety when the print service starts.
