Could not create the printer list because the spooler is stopped. Acme Job Monitor will end.

disagree  Ronnie McKee: cola de impresion is print queue, in other words the jobs waiting to be printed. I don't think that this is the appropriate translation.

listado o informe


Explanation:
If this is talking about the listing that comes from the printer, it should be listado o informe.

Responding to cameliaim - Is it printer list? or printer's list? I was wondering the same thing. One is possesive and one is a type of list. If the source text was translated into English from another language, then list could be conceivably interpreted as cola - but not in good technical (informatica).

Since this seems to be referring to a program which monitors jobs - then maybe "printer list" refers to a listing of printers - or maybe it simply refers to a listing (report) which comes from the printer rather than being displayed on the screen.
