Stuck in the print queue - printer will not clear

A new Dell Studio XPS and accidentally assigned HP Officejet 4200 to LPT1:(printer port) when what I should have done is plugged in usb.  Now cannot delete the document tries to print or the printer itself?  Have a printer plugged into thinking XPS (usb) that could create a stop any & allow the printer to delete - but no all he did was to create a copy of the 4200 series printer.  Rebooted PC & printer wrong is still trying to print.    In the old days of data processing, I would have plugged in an old printer that requires a printer port so that she could print but I do not have an old printer & do not think that my XPS even supports this kind of printer port.

Tried only good "@echo off" of another post - on XP?  Messages found in the Vista Forum for 'net stop/start spooler' but I better ask before screwing the thought
nothing else.
No idea how I can get this document on this printer so that I can remove the printer?

03/09/09 06:45 pm mst - fixed itself.  Closing PC to reboot hours later printer went.

Hello snerdly, welcome.

To expand on what said Rifdhan, you can virtually do the same thing by running the command "net stop spooler" in an elevated command prompt. Once the spooler service is stopped, printing that is emptied of force.

You can also stop the service through the console "services.msc", as an alternative.

Have a good!

Thank you!

  • HP Envy 5530: Emits a light HP Envy 5530, but the printer will not be running

    Printer of opportunity, so no guarantee: it out of the box, plugged in and set up. I was able to connect wirelessly to my computer, but I don't have the right to ink cartridges. When the ink is right, I plugged it again. This time the printer power not on at all. The only thing that happens is that the signal power light briefly when the first powered. This isn't a loose thread, because I can only duplicate the symptom when connecting, not when moving or unplug the device. It isn't food, as I have him succeeded and get the same exact symptom. (PS, thanks for the power supply internal easy-to-swap!)

    Is it a kind of fashion 'sleep'? Any suggestions as to what this is. I am rather stuck with it since I bought the ink and an additional power supply, so I would like to address them. Help, please! Thank you!

    Hello @azvlr,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand you are having feeding problems with your used HP ENVY 5530 e-all-in-one printer. I see that you have already installed a new set of ink and replaced the internal power supply without result. Unfortunately at this time if a new power supply fails to solve the problem of flashing light output that the next step would be to use the printer.

    Please take a look at this paper Support HP "no power" to ensure that all steps are completed that follows: The HP printer will not be running or to respond when the power button is pressed

    The HP Envy 5530 is always a newly released product. Therefore, I highly recommend contact our telephone Support queue to explore additional options. If a replacement printer is necessary food and ink will not be wasted because they can be used in the replacement printer.

    HP Technical Support can be reached at the: 800-474-6836.

  • DeskJet 712C: ink cartridge is stuck in the right side and will not go

    I have an old DeskJet 712C printer which was working fine until today. Strangely, the ink cartridge is stuck in the right side of the printer and will not spend. As soon as I turn on the printer, the red light starts flashing. Does anyone know tricks to get the cartridge to move again? Thank you for your help.

    Hello

    It may be possible to move the cart if you turn the printer off. Unplug the printer and open the cover of the printer.  See if you can move the carriage by hand.  If possible, move the carriage to the Center.  Check that nothing of blocking the abnormal movements of transport - for example the pieces of paper.

    Close the cover and then plug the printer back. I hope this will help.

    I found a YouTube video that shows fixing carriage jam on printers C4200 (I know that they are not the same as the 712 C), but some of the suggestions will be useful if my initial thought above does not help.  the video is on this link:

  • HP officejet pro 8600: printer will not be used with the document in the queue

    Hi people,

    Remove and then reconnect the printer

    Power reset

    Cancel job again.

    I had this problem before, but something so tinkering with the queue got fine but nothing works all the time.

    Ash,

    I could be wrong, of course; Mac is not liable for the same way as the Windows environment.

    The printer can print when the print queue of the printer is on, ready to accept a job.  If the queue of work, i.e. the service on the printer running print jobs does not print to the printer, the printer will not print the work.

    If the printer on the computer service is not to blame, then you might indeed want to accuse the printer to not receive the work.

    You can check the communication between the printer and the rest of the installation between the printer and the service that sends the work to the printer:

    You could try to put everything back once more - to include your router.

    I hope this helps.

    Maybe someone with a Mac experience can shed light on the issue.
