What you've already done. 2. The make/model/connection method of the printer. 3. The answer to the First Question of Troubleshooting: what changed between the time things worked and the time they didn't? In general, things to clear the printer queue (if this is what you really mean): 1. Reboot the computer. 2. Turn off and unplug the printer. 3. Stop and start the spooler service.

| | Re: printer deletion If you do not own the print job, you will need to open the printer queue view using Run as administrator. Once there are no pending jobs scheduled to the device, Run as administrator, Delete. If you have Business or Ultimate use printmanagement.msc for printer administration functions. -- Alan Morris Windows Printing Team Search the Microsoft Knowledge Base here: http://support.microsoft.com/search/?adv=1 This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
