print_fax >> Removing a print job

My daughter has a print job in the print que and I cannot
get it to cancel. I do not get a delete prompt and have
tried repeatedly to cancel with no success. How do I
remove this print job?

First stop the print spooler...

From the command prompt, type

net stop spooler

(and remember to hit enter)

Now go and delete the print job again.

Then remember to start the print spooler again by typing

net start spooler

1. Print jobs not removed from queue after printing - status is 'prin

This may or may not be a cluster-related issue, but here goes:

I have a Windows 2000 Cluster with a number of shared printers.
Some of the printer queues work perfectly, but a couple of others have a 
problem where a print job is not removed from the queue when it is printed.  
The job status shows 'printed'.  The only way to remove them is to delete 
them manually.  There is a Microsoft Knowledge Base article that describes a 
similar problem - caused by changing the 'creator owner' permissions, but 
that doesn't apply here.

Has anyone seen anything similar?

Thanks

Hello all,

After setting up an HP Color Laserjet 3500 on a 2000 server we are having
