• Does not clear the print queue of the printer

  I use Peachtree Accounting to generate cheques to pay for my clients and my Versacheck print the checks on blank check stock. From the windows of the last update of the queue of the Versacheck printer does not clear after that the checks are printed. Therefore, I can't print checks for another company without having to restart my PC to delete the printer. This becomes a huge problem and I was not able to get any assistance on site.

• Cannot clear the print queue

  I have the HP Photosmart all-in-One Printer C308g and tried to print a document yesterday evening.  It was the answer.  Then I tried to erase the doc and he said "deletion" - which was at 23:32 (EST) last night.  Since this same minute (11 a.m., EST) the doc shows again that "suppression".  I tried several times to cancel the doc.  I even off the printer, unplug the unit and still nothing.  I closed on my laptop then restarted it and tried to print again, but the original work was still in the queue.  Please if anyone has an answer to my dilemma, I would greatly appreciate your help.

• 5610 cannot clear the print queue, will not print

  Windows 7

  Works very well, then work has been "caught" in the queue. I can't print and I can't delete the job.

  Windows troubleshooting tool said he found a print job in the queue that prevents other print jobs and that fixed the problem, but it has not fixed the problem. If I run againî, I get the same message. Diagnosis seems correct, but just what he thinks he's doing to solve the problem does not work.

  I tried the printer doctor, but even if she sees the printer it does not move to fashion, we're going to fix things.

  Manually, I went to "Cancel all Documets" but that the command was not enabled even if the printer displays the items in its queue.

  I went on the ' record of spooling "in the System 32 directory and it was empty.

  Thanks for your reply. I had who tried once or twice before posting and it has not fixed the problem.

  What I didn't know (and did not appear in the online resources I checked) that the document was in the C:\Windows\System32\spool\PRINTERS directory on ANOTHER computer - hosting the network printer.  Once I found that crime files it I deleted the manually and solved the problem.

• Queue the printer frozen

  Using microsoft word on a PC - my printer mark is stuck on a single document.  I tried to cancel the document and cancel all documents and it is still in the queue with the "removal" after more than 10 minutes.  How can I remove the document and delete the queue?

  To clear the print queue, stop the print spooler service and delete all the pending print files.
      
  You cannot delete all print jobs in the queue so that the Print Spooler Service is running.
         
  To stop the Print Spooler Service, click Start, run and enter in the box:
          
  services.msc
          
  Click OK to open the Services Applet.
          
  Locate the Print Spooler Service, right click and choose 'Properties' and then click on the "Stop" button to stop the Print Spooler Service is running.
      
  The option "Startup Type" of Service properties print spooler is usually set to "Automatic" (which is now a good time to check it out).
      
  If the "Startup type" is not set to "Automatic", set the "Startup type" to "Automatic" If that is your desire (which now is the time to check it out).

  Do not try to start or restart the Print Spooler Service again...
      
  Then, delete all updates pending upward and forward to printing from XP.  If they do not print before, you will need to send the to the printer again.
      
  Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the following folder (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):
      
  C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS
          
  Delete all the print jobs in queue (select and delete all the files) in the folder if the folder is without waiting for print jobs.  The folder must be empty when you are finished.
          
  Reboot your system and check the Print Spooler Service again to make sure the Print Spooler Service restarts automatically restart (given that the startup type is set to automatic).
      
  After the reboot, check again the spooler service for printing and the 'Status' column for the print spooler must be read "started."

• Documents in the print queue will not cancel or print

  I tried all the usual cancel, delete, turn off the PC, turn the printer off, turn them both off the coast of all etc.

  Do or not.  There is no test.

  These directions will not work with Windows XP, but it's the right idea.

  She also leaves a file .cmd lingering somewhere on your system.

  I propose the following technique that works for all versions of Windows and will not let any .cmd persistent or other files on your system:

  First to clear the print queue, you have to stop the print spooler service, and then remove all the jobs/print files pending.
      
  You cannot delete all print jobs in queue so that the Print Spooler Service is running, so you have to stop first.
          
  To stop the Print Spooler Service, click Start, run and enter in the box:
          
  services.msc
          
  Click OK to open the Services Applet.
          
  Locate the Print Spooler Service, right click and choose 'Properties' and then click on the "Stop" button to stop the Print Spooler Service is running.
      
  The option "Startup Type" of Service properties print spooler is usually set to "Automatic" (which is now a good time to check it out).
      
  If the "Startup type" is not set to "Automatic", set the "Startup Type" field to "Automatic" If that is your desire (which now is the time to check it out).

  Do not try to start or restart the Print Spooler Service again...
      
  Next. remove all updates pending upward and forward to printing from XP.  If they do not print before, you will need to send them to the printer again once things are cleaned in service yet.
      
  Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the following folder (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):
      
  C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS
          
  Delete all the print jobs in queue (select and delete all the files) in the folder if the folder is without waiting for print jobs.  The folder must be empty when you are finished.
          
  Reboot your system and check the Print Spooler Service again to make sure the Print Spooler Service restarts automatically restart (given that the startup type is set to automatic).
      
  After the reboot, check again the spooler service for printing and the 'Status' column for the print spooler must be read "started."

  Got paper stuck in the printer and now will only print proofs. How to reset the printer

  It looks like you may have some saved jobs in your queue that need to be removed.

  Here's how:

  You cannot delete all print jobs in the queue so that the Print Spooler Service is running.
        
  To stop the Print Spooler Service, click Start, run and enter in the box:

  If the "Startup type" is not set to "Automatic", set the "Startup type" to "Automatic" If that is your desire (which now is the time to check it out).

  Do not try to start or restart the Print Spooler Service immediately.  You must remove all print jobs backed up first...

• Windows 8 cannot find the printer Canon MF4350D driver

  Separated from this thread.

  Hello.  Thanks for the links and the response of the second person.

  I'm also trying to get my Canon MF4350d printer to work with Windows 8.1.  I downloaded Canon drivers and install them.  My computer says my printer does not work properly and the driver software is updated.  But it still does not print.  The computer says "error" when I press print. When I use the troubleshooting, he said that the problem is a document it the print queue.  Well, it is the document that I am trying to print.  Any ideas?  I'm about to throw my computer Windows 8 by the window.  I can't afford another printer!

  Hello
