Can't Delete Print Job From Queue

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

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!
