Hi, I'm using Windows XP Professional. I attemped to print a 12 pageprint
document and the printer froze and wouldn't print anything. The status it
shows is Deleting - Printing. Now it won't print anything, additional
jobs just get hung up behind the forever Deleting-Printing document. I'veI
tried to pause and unpause, restart, cancel. Nothing returns results. I
even tried deleting the printer, but now the printer shows as "deleting".
rebooted CPU and printer. I'm at a loss, and feeling a bit riduculousthat a
printer is smarter than me.
Run this batch file. It will purge your printer queue.
@echo off
echo.
echo Purging the print queue . . .
net stop Spooler
echo Deleting all print jobs . . .
ping localhost -n 4 > nul
del /q %SystemRoot%\system32\spool\printers\*.*
net start Spooler
echo Done!
ping localhost -n 4 > nul
.
