Cannot cancel print jobs from queue in Windows

We have some print jobs we sent to the Bonjour printer when we were off network, they still show in the windows queue, but we cannot cancel them, any suggestions?
Matt

Short of removing Bonjour, then reloading it, not much. Presuming you're using Windows, have you tried deleting them, then turning off the computer, then turning it back on? Sometimes that does it.

  • Hoiw to remove print job from queue?

    How can I remove a "print job" from the queue.  Selecting "cancel all printing jobs" will not remove it.  It says it is deleting, it is not doing anything.   Help please.    As long as this job is showing the printer will not print anything else.

    Hi Betty,
    Welcome to the HP Forum.
    The job queue may be stuck.
    Switch off the printer
    IF you are running a notebook, first do this:
    Create a Restore Point:   Create a Restore Point – Win7  OR  Create a restore point Win8
    Close all your programs and Shut down the computer
    Disconnect everything (little Unifier for the keyboard / external mouse can stay)
    Perform the Hard Reset for your notebook model
    Boot the computer and log in
    OR
    If you are not running a notebook, just
    Create a Restore Point:   Create a Restore Point – Win7  OR  Create a restore point Win8
    stop all your running programs, 
    shut down completely
    Boot the computer and log in
    Switch on the printer and wait until it is all back up and running.
    That probably won't fix the queue, but it will clear the rest of the cobwebs.
    Next, try this:
    Control Panel> icon view > Administrative Tools> Services>
    Click on Name to sort the column alphabetically >
    Scroll down and look for Print spooler> Highlight Print Spooler>
    Click Restart the service

  • Cannot cancel print job on network B9180

    I have a B9180 network connected printer with an IP number. A print job is registered and cannot be printed or cancelled from the computer that created the job. I have cancelled the job on the printer using the X button because it would not cancel from the computer.. The computer has been restarted, but the print job is still registered in the printer cue (Vista 64) for the printer.  I can select the job and select cancel, the printer says it is cancelling, but does not complete the cancel.
    I cannot print any new jobs due to the bad job shown in the cue.
    Can someone tell me how can I cancel the bad print job and clear the cue on the computer? I have tried everything I know.
    Thanks
    Solved.

    Please go through instructions carefully:
    Ist Method:
    a) Open your computer and go to printer (control pannl (your printer))
    b) Double click printer icon. It lists all the print jobs.
    c) Right click your que job>choose 'Delete' or 'Cancle'
    2nd Method:

    b) select all jobs which are in que.... and simply delete them.
    Thanks !!

  • Cannot Cancel Print Job!!!

    Hi, I have tried everything, disconneting everything, but nothing works, the program apparently does not work, the normal way to just delete a job is not working, have hp deskjet f2210, and it will not cancel the print job no matter what I do! Any ideas? Thank you in advance for reading and trying to help me!

    Oh yes, don't you just love having to reboot your PC to clear up the print queue?  Well, I don't and have been using a little freeware app called "Stalled Printer Repair".  Google will find it for you.  I don't even think it needs to be installed.  You just run it.  I have found that it almost always cleans things up without having to kill processes and reboot.  Nice!

  • Linux client can't cancel print jobs in print monitor

    CUPS print server on Mac OS X server 10.4
    CentOS 4.4 linux client
    - Mac OS X server and CentOS linux client on different authentication sources
    The CentOS 4.4 linux client is configured for CUPS printing and pointed to the Mac OS X server CUPS print service.
    The linux client can successfully print to available printers servered by the Mac OS X server.
    The linux client has a print monitor. Normal user on linux client cannot cancel print jobs thru this print monitor. Selection of print job and pressing the 'cancel' button do not effect a cancel. Admin user on Mac OS X print server can cancel the job from the print server.
    Is authorization required for a client to cancel a CUPS print job on the client?
    Is same authentication setup required for both client and server?
    Thanks,
    -Neil

    Hi,
    From the Desktop, hold down the Windows key and press R.  Into the Run window, type services.msc and hit enter.  Browse down to the print spooler service, right click it and select Properties then click on the Stop button.  Now browse to C:\Windows\System32\Spool\PRINTERS and delete the job inside this folder - You may need to click a prompt to gain the appropriate authority to open the PRINTERS folder.
    Restart the computer and you should find the document(s) have been removed.

  • How do I cancel printer job queue? CanonBJC-250 will not function because of long queue. cannot find control.

    Apparently the print order was pressed several times. Now there is a long list of print orders and the printer will not work.

    This is more of a Ubuntu-related question than a Firefox one. When print jobs are queued up, you should get a printer icon in the notification area (beside your clock by default). Clicking on the printer should allow you options to cancel the print jobs. Give it a try -- I can't guarantee if it works as I haven't got any printers installed in my Ubuntu.

  • Can I cancel mail job from SOST queue and make its status to be error or red

    Do you have any idea to cancel mail job from SOST queue and make its status to be error or red (msgno = 806) by using coding ??

    Hi,
    I recently (over this past summer) updated my phone and plan with Verizon.  I'm from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and I got the phone in Pittsburgh.  It is a Droid Eris and very nice.  I got it and a month later I moved to Olympia, Washington for school.  Since moving there, I have hardly been able to use it.  The service is terrible and its been impossible to keep in touch with my family, I wasn't even able to call them over Thanksgiving.  I'm also having to pay extra money so I can use the internet on my phone, but I can't even access the internet let alone make phone calls.  It's really frustrating.  I can't use my phone to keep in touch with everyone in Pittsburgh-and if I am ever in trouble I wouldn't be able to call for help, which makes me really nervous.  Is there a way I can cancel my 2yr contract?  Yes.  Just visit a Verizon store, or dial *611 from your phone and let them know you would like to cancel your account.  Would I have to pay a fee-and how much would that cost? Yes, Verizon no longer waives ETFs due to moving to an area without service, so you will probably have to pay an Early Termination Fee.  Since you have a smartphone, it will probably be $350 less $10 for each month of service you have completed.  The Customer Service rep you contact about cancelling will be able to tell you the exact amount.  Would I have to go to the Verizon store I bought the phone from to do this or would I have to do this in Washington-where I am now living and having the problems? You can do it over the phone, or at a corporate Verizon store.  Help!

  • How to cancel all jobs from printer

    We have network printer printing through a server, but some times some user tries to print the job locally instead of using the print server.In this case even if i clear all the jobs from the server the printer job sent to the printer trough tcp/ip  from the users computer remains hanging in the printer. In case the localy printed job is wrong or incompatible it hangs the HP printer with 49.4C02 error and there is no way to track down who sent the wrong job and printer At last the only option remains is to change the printers ip address which resolves the issue or if the user himself cancels the job from his computer. example printer : HP Color LaserJet 4700

  • UNABLE TO CANCEL PRINT JOB THAT KEEPS PRINTING SAME COPIES

    How do you cancel print job on a HP Deskjet D1520 with Windows Vista?
    THANKS!

    Since this printer does not have a physical "Cancel" button, the easiest way of stopping a document print is to clear the document from the Print Queue.
    To remove a document from the print queue manually:
    1. Depending upon your operating system, do one of the following:
    • Windows Vista: On the Windows taskbar, click Start, click Control Panel, and
    then click Printers.
    • Windows XP: On the Windows taskbar, click Start, click Control Panel, and
    then click Printers and Faxes.
    • Windows 2000: On the Windows taskbar, click Start, point to Settings, and
    then click Printers.
    2. Double-click the icon for your product to open the print queue.
    3. On the Printer menu, highlight the document, click Cancel or Purge Print Document,
    and then click Yes to confirm.
    Now, if the document has already started printing and you want to stop it before it finishes; then simply lift the top access door which will pause printing. Remove the document from the print queue now. If it is no longer in the print queue, then power off the printer. Wait about 30 seconds and power on the printer again. This should have stopped the document from printing.

  • Clear another user's print jobs from standard user account

    I have Parallels set up to print from Windows through Bonjour printer sharing with Mac OS X. Periodically print jobs I've sent from Windows will hang, or for some other reason I need to cancel them. Because I usually use a standard user account, I apparently can't delete them from the print queue--or, rather, I can, but then they just appear again. I can get rid of them by fast-switching over to the admin account, opening System Preferences, opening the Print & Fax pane, opening the queue, deleting the jobs, logging out, and then logging back in to my standard account. But that's kind of a pain, and I've been trying to find a faster way to do it.
    I have some extremely rudimentary knowledge of Terminal, and came across the sudo lprm - command, which seemed like it would do it. I had thought that sudo would just ask me for an admin password, but when I tried it, of course, I discovered that what it apparently actually wants is for my standard user account to be in the sudoers file (or, I guess, for me to have root enabled and use that password somehow).
    But since I don't really know what I'm doing, and doing anything with sudo or root access scares the bejesus out of me unless I know exactly what I'm doing: Can anyone tell me exactly what I need to do here? Is there a way to run the lprm - command to clear everything out of the print queue with just an admin password, without requiring root access? Or have I gone completely off the rails and missed some other easy way to clear another user's print job from a standard user account without resorting to Terminal at all?
    Thanks!

    OK, never mind--I had assumed I needed to work some sort of admin privilege into the mix to do this, since that's what the GUI seemed to require, but it turns out that just using "lprm -" in Terminal clears it right out. Perfect!
