Print Spooler crash loop and Im stuck.

This app can't run on your PC
To find a version for your PC, check with the
software publisher.
it happens as soon as i open printer settings or print from the photo app. the new driver for the laser printer from Canon is my main suspect, but i cant even open the printer properties to remove it because the spooler dies first. is there a safe way to remove a printer driver when teh spooler keeps crashing? seriously need help here 馃槶
