Fix printer error code 0x000006d9

During the process of installing and using the printer, you will probably encounter many errors. And one of them is probably error code 0x000006d9 , which usually occurs when you are using multi-configuration ghosts shared on the Internet.

The reason is that the author has disabled some unused services on the Windows operating system, in order to speed up Windows and reduce the size of the Ghost version. Because actually, a few of you who work on office computers, do printing-related jobs are only using these services.
