Printer error 0x00000005 can also be abbreviated as STOP 0x5, but the full STOP code is always the one shown in the blue STOP message.

0x00000005-printer-error-9944671

If Windows can start after the STOP 0x5 error, you may be prompted to restore Windows after an unexpected shutdown.

There isn't much information about error 0x00000005, but I found a simple solution. This error 0x00000005 generally occurs when you cannot set your new printer or another printer as the default printer.

The error message looks like this:

“The operation could not be completed (error 0x00000005). Access denied."
