Printer network connection problems. Windows can not connect, error 0x0000000d

I was able to back up the Win7 HKEY_Local_system registery key.
I then followed all these steps and stil get the same error. What do I do next.
To resolve this problem, modify the value of the Previous Names registry entry on the print server so that it contains valid data. To do this, follow these steps:
Click Start
, click Run, type regedit, and then clickOK.
Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Drivers\Version-3\<DriverName>
On the File menu, click Export.
In the File name box, type printerName, and then clickSave.
Right-click printerName.reg, and then click Edit.
Locate the sentence which starts with the "Previous Names" string, and then replace the sentence with the following text:
"Previous Names"=hex(7):00,00 (This had :00,00,00,00 so I changed it)
On the File menu, click Save.
Exit Notepad.
Right-click the file that you saved in step 7, click Merge, and then clickOK.
Restart the Print Spooler service. To do this, follow these steps:
Click Start

, type services.msc in the Start Search box, and then click services.msc in thePrograms list.

If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or clickContinue.
Right-click Print Spooler, and then click Stop.
Right-click Print Spooler, and then click Start.
