Windows - Canceling a Print Job
When the printer is connected to multiple computers, be careful not to accidentally cancel other users' print jobs.
If the print job you want to cancel is being printed
Check if the print job you want to cancel is currently being printed.
While the print job may not be being printed, the printer is receiving data if the Data In indicator is lit or blinking.
Press the [Job Reset] key.
The “Job Reset?” screen appears.
Select the current job or all jobs (including the current job) using the [
] or [
] key.
It is also possible to annul the cancellation. Printing resumes if you select [Resume Print], and then press the [
Enter] key.
Press the [ Enter] key.
A confirmation message appears.
Printing resumes if you press the [Escape] key after the message appears.
Press the [ Enter] key.
The job is canceled. When the cancellation procedure is complete, a message appears.
A print job that contains a large volume of data may take considerable time to cancel.
If printing resumes after being canceled, the period of time set for [I/O Timeout] is too short. Set a longer period of time for [I/O Timeout] on the [Host Interface] menu.
If the print job you want to cancel is not being printed
Double-click the printer icon on the Windows task tray.
A window appears showing all print jobs that are currently queuing to be printed. Check the current status of the job you want to cancel.
You can also open the print job queue window by double-clicking the printer icon in the [Printer] window.
Select the name of the job you want to cancel.
On the [Document] menu, click [Cancel Printing].
When this printer is used as a network printer, other users' print jobs cannot be canceled from a client computer.
Clicking [Purge Print Documents] on the [Printer] menu deletes all currently queued print jobs. However, when this printer is used as a network printer, print jobs from other users' computer cannot be canceled from a client computer.
When the print job you selected starts printing, it takes some time before the print job disappears from the printer window.
