I started a print job and then realized, too late of course, it had already printed. When I tried to cancel the print the power button just kept flashing and when I pushed it, it started again. Help! I need to know how to stop it and keep it from continuing to print the cancelled job when it is turned back on. I have a HP deskjet 5940.

during print, power down your HP Deskjet and then cancel the print queue in the print manager settings. wait for the queue to disappear before powering on your printer. i do the same thing with my deskjet 710c.

Hi, This is a simple but Quickly It will not stop printing. So To stop printing on Status Bar Click on the Printer Icon or Goto Control Panel > Printers and Faxes On that Dialog Box the Current print Job will be displayed Right Click on that and Delete the Job. The another quick think is to do if this process will not stop the printing ASAP. 1.Switch off the printer and delete the print job from printer faxes. 2.If its a network printer unplugged your network cable Like this only we can stop this printing job immidiately.

There should be a way to find your printer on your computer, for example going to my computer or the control panel and finding your printer. Then you can double click that and cancel whatever print job is going on. Just make sure it's not temporarily paused, but completely erased from the printer's log so that it won't start up again later.

all HP printers have a Cancel button with the red cross on them, just press it and the print will stop, that's for the printer
if your PC wont recognize the cancel command then right click the printer icon select queue and then from the menu select clear or delete printing jobs
that's it

1. Just turn off or unplug the printer.
2. Cancel the job from your computer to clear it from the queue.
3. Turn on or plug the printer.
That's it.

Unplugging from electricity source won't do it? Plug back-in and it resumes where you unplugged? That sounds like a job for Superdealer. Call Customer Service and hope they help...Those printer (and fax!) cartridges are expensive, not to mention the paper!
