Can anyone tell me how to clear a print que in windows XP? It seems that when I delete a document already printing it says it's deleting what's in the print que, but it never actually does. So I can't print anything else unless I reboot. Is there something wrong I'm unaware of?

I have tried shutting the printer off and back on - this doesn't seem to work either :(

Shut Your Printer Off And Turn It Back On!
If it doesnt work you might have to restart!!

Look at the clock near your start menu. Beside it, right click the printer icon and click "Open All Active Printers". A window will appear. Right click the print job and select delete. Wait for it to clear.

You should find a printer icon in right side of the taskbar. Open it, select the print job and delet it. It's easy.

Hun, it's OK...I smashed the printer.
Nah...I just gave up and re-booted the damn thing. But next time...I'm gonna smash something.
