Delete Printer Queue

Creation date: 12/16/2024 7:40 AM    Updated: 12/16/2024 7:40 AM   job print queue stuck
Question:

The Open Booking ID Printer has a print job that needs to be deleted but unable to do so.

Print Job 92.

Answer:

On the computer with the issue, try these steps...

  • On the taskbar, type software center in the search bar.
  • Open the Software Center app.
  • Within the Applications entry, you'll see an option called "Print Queue - ClearPrintJobs"
  • Once you spot it, click it.
  • Click Install.
  • This should run a command that'll clear the print queue on this particular machine.
  • Software Center will then ask for a restart of the computer; do so before attempting to print again. (You may want to restart the printer as well but may not be necessary).

It corrected when I restarted the printer. 
Thanks

It kind of worked. The queue is no longer visible but when I put IDs back in the printer it is printing the same file

I recently created something in Software Center that'll allow you to clear the print queue on your own.

Try these above steps and let me know if successful or not.
