Pop-up ball "this document has been sent to the printer." appears even after printing has been cancelled?

Hello.

I have a question about printing, the print cancellation and popup alerts in the taskbar on the print job.

So, there were already a few documents waiting to be printed online (and print them) when I clicked on my document to print.

But before my document to print, I decided to cancel it. I deleted my document from the list.

I thought it was her - when you cancel a print job (remove the document selected in the list), the computer don't forget on this subject and that the document is not printed.

I was surprised when I got back to the computer about an hour later to find a notification pop up, ball, alert, printer emerging from the printer in the taskbar icon - the alert said: "this document was sent to the printer. (with the name of my document) (But a paper printed my document be found.)

What does that mean?

This is a public computer and other computers were connected to the same printer as well - with people printing at the time their company, I canceled mine.

It made me think that there is a chance that my document has been printed somehow despite the fact that I cancelled (but that is not entirely possible)?

And that maybe someone by mistake, took my document with them after they finished their impression?

But I still think that when you cancelled printing your document in the related window, it's a closed work and that the document is never printed. Is this correct?

So my main question is if the message pop-up means "this document was sent to the printer."?

It (the alert) has in fact been delayed and he should have appeard at the precise moment I hit 'print' on my document?

That said this message: only literally only by clicking on "print" a document sent to the printer (but it can always be undone later)? Or this message also pointed out that the print job has been run?

(I have read on this message a lot and learned that you can get rid of it, but I'm more interested in its meaning; I have not found almost anything on this subject again.)

I know my question is looooong (when it's not that complicated, really :), but I would really like to clarification (mostly because it was a public computer, and I can't check on what happened with my doc (if anything even made)).)

P.s.: this is Windows 7 on this computer.

P.p.s.: is there a way to see how many times a document has been printed in a PDF?

Thank you in advance for an answer.

This means that the file was transmitted during the printer, but that the cancel command, you sent were received before the printer actually print.  This is a normal situation.

With regard to how to see in a PDF document, how many times it has printed, no.

  • This document was sent to the printer - windows 7

    In earlier versions of windows, there was a section of server properties in the Printers folder, which allowed me to transform the popup "this document was sent to the printer.

    How can I disable this message in Windows 7?

    TIA

    Joe Joe

    Hey Joe,

    You can disable the notification under Windows 7 as well. To turn off Notification

    1. open devices and printers

    2. Select the printer

    3. in the menu above the icons click the print server properties

    4. go to advance tab, disable notifications of information and save the changes.

    This would prevent the pop-up message.

    Hope this information is useful.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8620 does not print, but the document is sent to the printer without error

    I bought a HP Officejet Pro 8620 and connect 2 computers via a wireless connection with the latest driver.
    In the first computer (windows 7) I can print without any problem
    On the second one (windows 8), when I try to print, I can see in the windows printer spooler file that I'm going to print. The file is sent to the printer, without error, BUT nothing happens.
    I already tried reinstalling the drivers, restart the computer, the printer. I tried to connect to a wired network. It still does not. It's very weird but I got no error, just does not print. I thought that the printer does not work, but on the second computer I can print.
    Thank you for your advice

  • Emails sent to the printer are readjusted "undeliverable".

    Printer HP Photosmart wireless home more B210 connected to the network.

    We have recently updated the broadband router and changed.  Since the upgrade of the printer works fine when printing directly from a PC or a laptop on the network - however, e-mails sent to the printer remotely have now returned "undeliverable" even though the printer email address has been entered correctly.   The printer frequently now also displays a message asking me to put it off and then on again.

    In addition to a new router upgraded, we reinstalled the printer and the e-mail address has changed - but the problem occurred before the change of e-mail address.

    We tried all the trouble shooting usual tools and have no idea of what happens here. Any help gratefully received!

    Sorted! Thank you!!!

  • Printing problems with XP and Lexmark-documents are just stuck in the print queue

    Original title: printing problems with XP and Lexmark

    Until yesterday, I was able to print OK using Windows XP and a Lexmark Printer series 3500-4500 with wireless capabilities.  Reported network test wireless (on printer) and report indicates that there are no reported problem, also did the diagnostic test and which shows no problem either.  I can't print and documents are just stuck in the print queue - please can someone help, it drives me crazy because it's probably a very simple solution.

    I guess you do not have all of the error messages.

    It is possible that comes to mind that your printer has received a new IP address of your router (this could easily happen if you have several computers and other devices that connect to your wireless network).

    Find the IP address of the printer of his network diagnostic page.
    Click Start > printers and faxes, right-click the printer and select Properties
    Select the Ports tab, then click on the button "Configure Port" (be careful NOT to click anywhere in the list of ports)
    Make sure that the IP address in 'Port settings' is identical to that shown on the diagnosis of your network printer page.

    To avoid this problem in the future, you must configure the printer to have a static IP address.  See your printer User Guide for instructions.

    Choose an appropriate subnet address (i.e., has the first 3 groups of numbers the same as the other addresses in your network) but who is not in the range of addresses assigned by the DHCP server on your router.  See the User Guide of your router for more details.

  • Windows 8 and now cannot get my printer to print. Tried to print a test page, message says "sent to the printer test page", but it does not print.

    I recently downloaded Windows 8 and now cannot get my printer to print.  Tried to print a test page, message says "sent to the printer test page", but it does not print.  Can you help me?

    You have installed the drivers and software for your printer?  Did you go to the printer manufacturer's website to see if they still have 8 available Windows compatible drivers?  If the answer is no, then you must do this before all first I try to print.

  • 2015 CC Dreamweaver cannot open or create web files more: message "invalid argument has been found" keep appearing instead. The problem persists even after complete reinstallation. Help please.

    I have Dreamweaver CC 2015 since last year, on a system win 7 with plenty of space and good care.
    Never had any problems until last week, when Dreamweaver stop opening o creation of html or php files. Instead, the program displays an alert of "invalid argument has been found", then stops to do anything.

    I've looked everywhere. I cleaned the resgistry, reset preferences custom, tested different files, with or without content, old and new, even uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe CC. Nothing works.

    I install Quora, because I have work to do, but I prefer clearly have CC Dreamweaver working again.

    Need help please, I don't really know what to do.

    Although that is NOT a real solution (now I have to keep a local copy redundant and unprotected and move almost a gigabyte of data, whenever I need to edit a project) work space solves the problem. I still don't know what has changed since before, but I can work again.

    IMO Adobe should at least give notice of this behavior, letting us know that the application does not work because it is restricted to local activities. "This file cannot be saved through a network" or "this program can change the local files" would have sufficed for avoid me a good 5 hours of lost production.

  • Why I repeatedly get a security update for Windows Vista for systems (KB2676562) and update for Windows Vista (KB2679255) focused on the x 64 even after that both have been installed successfully?

    update of security (KB2676562) has already been correctly installed 21 times, began towards the end of May.  Update for Windows Vista (KB2679255) was successfully installed 35 times, he began in mid-April.  These two continue to update themselves every day and do it at least twice a day, back to back.  It is very frustrating to have to deal with that and makes me think that something may be a problem with my computer.  I had heard of registry cleaners is not not a good thing to use, if recently I not unhooked my registry free cleaner.  I hope that it has not caused my computer to lose any registry key values.  Does anyone know a possible solution or what I need to do?

  • Document to the printer does not cancel for what I can print other things

    My printer HP Deskjet 1000 has a document which continues to view "delete", but I'm unable to cancel when I right click under the State in the settings. Therefore, I am unable to print something again or try again to print the original document. I was able to cancel other documents I tried to print, but not this one. He repeats to me just "delete...: but won't Cancel."  Please help if you can, I really need to use the printer.  Thank you.

    Hello

    I think you need to delete the queue. For Windows, try it please:

    Hold down the Windows key and press R.
    from the run window, type services.msc and press to enter.
    If the computer asks you to Admin, you have to accept that,
    regarder watch down to the print spooler service, right-click and select Properties
    Click the Stop button,
    Go to C:\Windows\System32\Spool\printers
    delete the job inside this folder
    restart the machine.

    Kind regards.

  • When you type a document in format Word 12, the printed document comes out much smaller

    I can't seem to fix itRemember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

    Ideas:

    • You have problems with programs
    • Error messages
    • Recent changes to your computer
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem

    Try to check print preview before print and check if the image shows smaller fonts or the correct fonts.  That can help determine if the problem is with Word or with the printer.  This problem occurs with any other program that Word or simply with Word?

    If only with Word (or only with office products), please repost on the Word Forum at:http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/wordshare/threads where experts in Word will be happy to help you.  Don't forget to tell them what version you use in your first post.
