- This tutorial will show you guys how to clear stuck print jobs.
Have you ever run into the situation where you try to print something and nothing happens? You wait for it to print, but the job doesn’t go through? There are a ton of reasons why a print job may not actually print, but one of the common causes is that the printer queue has a stuck print job.
This can happen for a number of reasons. Let’s say you tried to print something a few hours back, but the printer was off. You ended up not needing the document and you forgot about it. Then you come back and try to print. The print job is added to the queue and if the previous job didn’t get removed automatically, it will be behind that print job that never got printed.
Sometimes you can manually go in and delete the print job, but sometimes you just can’t get rid of it! In this type of case, you have to clear the print queue manually. In this tutorial, I’ll show you the steps to clear the print queue.
This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops,and tablets running the Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 7 operating systems.Works for all major computer manufactures (Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, Samsung).

Even easier to do by using CMD in admin mode:
net stop Spooler
Del C:\Windows\System32\spool\PRINTERS\*.* /Q
net start Spooler
If do this many time, name it as .bat file as needed
Save you some time.😊
Hi, followed all your instructions, I had 2 files which I deleted as instructed, but when I tried printing a single print it continues to print until the printer is turned off!?
Any idea what to try next? Is there a setting in the Printers & Scanners page where I can adjust how many copies are required for that particular printer as I think I may have adjusted it by mistake
previously?
thank you for this video, i used it several times
