My sister still has Win XP. She tried to print a document on her USB printer and now it's stuck in the printing queue. I tried the following:
- Restart the computer
- Restart the printer
- Delete the entry from the printing queue
- From the printing queue choose Printer\Cancel All Documents
- Right click the print job and choose Pause
The status of the printing job now reads "Deleting - Paused - Printing".
Nothing I do seems to get rid of this stuck printing job.
What should I do?
Nearly 9 years later, and STILL a problem? Ridiculous! Just had to do this to Windows Server 2016 and its managed print queues. – Dale Mahalko – 2019-09-13T20:56:37.693
This saved me several times, too. – Ither – 2010-12-20T12:59:01.327
