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."

Submit new failure of print jobs.

  • Photosmart C5180 - impossible to remove from the queue of the printer

    Hello

    I am trying to print something, but I can't delete the first document in the queue (what's more, I want to print). It is frozen on the "remove" status, but nothing happens. I tried restarting both the printer and laptop, but still nothing. Help!

    In addition, the State of the printer on my laptop says ' paper' (but not on my printer) and yet it is not paper. Any help very welcome!

    Hello

    This can help with the paper stuck in the print queue.

    In Control Panel, open administrative tools and select abuse.  Scroll down to the print spooler service, right click and select Properties, then click the Stop button.  Now search for C:\Windows\System32\Spool\PRINTERS, then delete the work inside this folder - you may need to click a command prompt to get the authority to open the PRINTERS folder.

    Restart the computer and you should find that the document has been removed from the queue.

  • 4508 ENVY: ENVY 4508 firefox launched the print job hangs in the print queue

    Hello

    We have a desire 4508 connected via wifi to a laptop 10 (x 64) Windows.

    We downloaded and installed the latest drivers available on HP and printers generally LibreOffice, WordPad or Firefox (normal web pages).

    But there is a situation when printing fails and we do not know why: If we try to print accounting information for the bank account, the print job is displayed in the windows printer queue but it stucks and blocks the other print jobs. The only way to get the printer to work is once again the restarting the printer spool service and removal of the print job in the queue (which sounds easier than it is actually...).

    We already ran this 'Doctor Print' application provided by HP, but it helps not at all.

    Is this a known issue?

    Is it related to the driver or more likely a problem of the web page in question / feel?

    How can I get more information about what exactly is going wrong?

    Thanks in advance.

  • M127fw MFP: How to delete the print jobs in the queue?

    When I get an error message when trying to print, I keep trying to print.  This means that I can hit 'print' five times for the same document, because I hit 'print' whenever I think I might finally have something fixed.

    The problem is that HP never forget any of these applications - when it finally starts printing - it always prints every single job - meaning that I get multiple copies of jobs for which I got an error message.

    Where is the interface to view and delete these jobs? I can't find it on the printer itself.  Is there an interface where I can delete jobs in the queue?

    Go to devices and printers and double click on the printer icon. Now click on something like seeing what is printing a list of documents should appear and you can pass by and remove whatever ones you want.

  • HP Envy 4500: Print jobs disappear from the print queue and not print (Windows 7).

    I just bought a HP Envy 4500 printer,

    When you attempt to print from a PC with windows 7 OS home pro (64-bit), the print job appears in the queue and then disappears, but the printer does not print anything.

    Everything else seems to work very well know

    • The printer prints the internal test page
    • The printer does print when you use iPad2
    • The printer does print when you use ePrint
    • The PC recognizes and communicates with the printer (tried with USB connections and wireless)
    • Analysis feature works very well - when initiated from the PC and printer

    I tried

    • uninstalling and reinstalling the software (several times using software from different sources)
    • restart the printer queue service
    • Disabling the firewall
    • running printing HP and doctor Scan
    • following the instructions described here (the question is the same but the different operating system):

    Print jobs disappear from the print queue and print (Windows 8)

    • combinations of all of the above

    Absolutely no joy in any of them, and in spite of more than 2 hours of research on Google and forums search I can't find a solution.

    HP... can you give me a solution or is that goes back to the shop?

    Well I finally worked on the fix myself by trial and error.  I changed the security settings for 'All' and 'Creator owner' to 'Print' and "Administer Documents".  Why on earth they were not automatically allowed as part of the installation, I couldn't really say.

    Hope this helps someone else with a similar problem.

  • HP Deskjet 3050 J611 series: I can't remove a document from the print queue

    My printer has an element 'stuck' in the print queue.  It got stuck when I accidentally turned off the computer until the print job has finished.  I use the "remote" printer, that is to say through the network. not with a printer cable.

    I tried to remove it, I went to the Control Panel, etc., I tried HP Support Assistant - nothing works.

    I tried to turn off the computer, printer and internet router for several minutes.

    The print queue of the printer says "delete", but it has been like that for 12 hours.

    I can not print anything else!

    Help, please!

    Yes, after the restart I had to go back in the case R Windows to run, and then in the print spooler and press start and the printer came back without the stuck paper.  Thank you very much!

  • HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 4615: Printer is deleted when delete print queue of the printer in Win8.1

    I right click the "Delete the print queue" option in "devices and printers". Who deleted the default printer and also removed the icon of the printer. The system then made the fax printer HP 4610 series the default printer. I re - install from the web HP printer drivers, but the HP 4615 icon does not appear with the other printing devices in "devices and printers". In each application, I need to select the HP4615 now that the printer before I can print. If I click on "Add a device" or "add a printer", the HP 4615 is not picked up. If I select "printer queue", then it shows the HP series fax and printer HP4615. How can I get the system to display the HP 4615 icon so that I can make my default printer?

    @Pietcar,

    I hope you're well and welcome to the community of HP

    I read on how you had removed the icon of the printer Deskjet Ink Advantage 4615 of devices and printers and since then have tried to reinstall the printer, which does not have the icon back to the printers and devices section, leaving you to not be able to select the 4615 as default printer.

    Here are my suggestions, starting with:

    1. run the print and scan the doctor. This diagnostic tool will check for all conflicts that may be causing the problem. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there is a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results. Let me know what the results detected please. (Select difficulty printing when you run the PSDr)

    2. run the HP printer install Windows Wizard to find and install the driver "Full Feature" printers and software and go through the installation to see if there are errors or if the installation fails at any point.

    Check the devices and printers again to see if the printer icon appears. Also try to restart the PC to see if that helps.

    Please keep me informed of the result!

  • Example: Deskjet 3050 - J610: printer removes items in the print queue

    Please see problem posted on June 9, 2016 and thread support. Sorry, I don't know how to go on this subject but the problem that I've marked as being solved is no longer is. It it is possible to mark as resolved and to reopen the thread please let me know how and I would be glade to do. Essentially sent items to the queue printing are deleted until they can print. They show in the print queue and then are marked "delete." I ran Print ahd doctor Scan of my desktop PC, and he says that everything is OK with the printer. I can see what the ink levels in the printer, and it printed on the printer succcessfully diagnostic information when asked to do so. I can see all of the information on the model of the printer, the serial number etc. so it seems that the PC can see the printer. But it will not print emails or Word documents - while he has done it before. Problem seems to have started when I tried to scan a document in and it would not. Printer is connected wireless and has an IP address, it doesn't seem to be the firewall attached - I disabled the Anti Virus software and it will not print. It runs the Windows firewall good that cause issues? I disabled that too, but it did not help. I followed the intstructions given by Gemini02 a HP Support Agent and it seemed to solve the problem but it only did it once and then continued to remove items from the print queue. I also tried to turn off the printer and then the PC, left for a while and then restarted them and that seemed to work. He already showed the printer as offline and printing and scanning doctor fixed that but when I ran it but still it only printed once and then returned to the deletion of items in the print queue. Grateful for any advice anyone can offer please.
