I can no longer print to my printer because there is an
entry in the queue that cannot be deleted. I tried to
delete it, but it remains on the queue with a status
of "Deleting-Printing". Help!

Stop the print spooler first.

From the command prompt, type: net stop spooler (and hit enter)

Then try to delete the job again.

Hi,
After you delete the job(s) that is being queue,
reboot your machine and try to check if the job(s) is
still there.

Good Day!
