How can I clear my print queue?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.print_fax (More info?)

NetGear does not support bidirectional printing. Uncheck Bidirectional in
Print Properties / Ports.

Generally, Hewlett-Packard, Canon, Epson and all major parallel printers.
Click here for a compatibility list . The bidirectional printer function and
the spooler manager may need to be disabled for the printer to work properly
with the Print Server. In any event, turning on the bidirectional feature
will cause data to be sent somewhat more slowly to the printer.
