Try turning off your printer,wait 10sec.,and restart it.
Sometimes that helps removing cancelled prints out of the queue.
If that doesn't do it,a simple reboot of your computer should solve the problem. :)
just cancel then turn off comp or restart exactly as filliz said.
kick it
I have the same problem with my old Epson printer. I clicked print by accident on like 100 page document so i ran and turned the printer off witht he buttona nd now whenever i urn it on it prints pages and pages or just random symbols. I ahve disconnected it witht hemaisn and cable restarted hunreds of imes and its been like this for a good month and a half. ANyone have any ideas?
mine does that too but not after restarting.Quote:

try uninstalling the driver though.
i never installed a driver because of xp.
it wont cancel and its pisssing me off because i have to transfer a file with a floppy to another comp everytime i need to print something :angry:

All you have to do is run that disk when installing your printer so that the driver gets installed as well.
If you have the disk,run it again and see if that helps solving your problem.
noo, im installing an old but reliable okidata ol600e.
the website said their is no driver because xp already has it installed.
i got it to print stuff earlier but an unfinished print by the now disconnected lexmark printer wont cancel.
i cant uninstall its drivers without stopping the print que and i cant stop the que cause it wont let me.

when my POS epson does that, i hit pause on the que'd items, then i can cancel or delete them
