Canceling a print job
You can cancel a print job from a software application or a print queue.
To stop the printer immediately, remove the remaining paper from the printer. After the printer stops, use one of the following options.
●Printer control panel: To cancel the print job, press and release the CANCEL button on the printer control panel.
●Software application: Typically, a dialog box appears briefly on your screen, allowing you to cancel the print job.
●Windows print queue: If a print job is waiting in a print queue (computer memory) or print spooler, delete the job there. Go to the Printer screen in Windows 98, Me, 2000, or XP, click Start, Settings, and Printers.
●Desktop print queue (Mac OS): For Mac OS 9,
●HP Toolbox: Open HP Toolbox, browse to the printer's Device Status page, and click Cancel Job. See Using the hp toolbox for more information.
●Embedded Web server: Open the printer's embedded Web server page, and click Cancel Job. See Using the embedded Web server for more information.
If the status lights on the control panel continue to blink after you cancel a print job, the computer is still sending the job to the printer. Either delete the job from the print queue or wait until the computer finishes sending data. The printer will return to the Ready state.
