How to empty printer que? will not clear jobs I don't need
1152421
I have trouble with mine as well. I do know that you have to make sure the queue in your laptop/computer/etc. is clear. Some times it will not print a job. I finally give up and later when I go to print another job, it will print the one I could not get it to print. I just think it was a lousy printer and should have been taken off the market but companies are so greedy anymore they just don't care. I hope some one else can give you a better answer.

I wish I could help you. It is not a good printer, I have other problems. I wish I had returned it.

I'm sorry, but about half the time, I have the same issue. I have to agree with Bitterauldqueen, below. I have had it refuse to print one job, while it prints a previous job over and over, sometimes, even after I have deleted the previous one (or thought I had). I'm sorry you're having problems, too, but at least I'm glad to know it's not just me doing something wrong. I wish I could have an answer for you. I used to like Lexmark, but I'm beginning to think I'm going to try a different brand in the future.

I open the the small Lexmark printer icon in the lower left side (I'm using Windows Vista), I click on the print item listed, click on each one and cancel the print job. Once in a while, it will not work, so I reboot the computer and most of the time, that print job is gone. I've had this printer for over five years and it still works great. I hope this helps you.

Of course. It behaves like a network printer. The print jobs are queued and the first one prints first and then the next.

i don`t know if the chips can be reset. But the message that tells that they are expired is not an error. just send one page to the printer first, accept the expired message, and send the rest of the job. after that, you can print everything without expired message

I ignore the pop up messages and just delete them. When the printer stops working because the cartridge is actually empty, we replace. The warnings give you enough time to order a replacement, but I've found that the printer will run for several weeks before replacement is needed. Clearing the nagging warnings can be tiresome. BTW, ours is 9325CW.

Take the tray out of the bottom and turn the printer on it's front side. Use some rubbing alcohol and a towel to clean the rubber paper pickup in the middle. Problem solved--for awhile.

Do a nozzle check on your printer. Run three consecutive cleaning cylces.Change your graphic to a jpg and print in rgb.Google it.Just a couple suggestions.

When the paper jammed or is jammed (and needs to be cleared from the printer), when you need to replace ink cartridges, etc. Probably after you clear the paper jam or replace the cartridge, just press the OK button and that may clear turn off the light. When that light goes on, it should prevent you from printing until you turn it off. That's the OK.

Try opening the printer settings from the computer. Also try the settings from the printer itself. Maybe try shutting it off and on.

I recommend not doing that...I had one at a company I worked for and the non HP ink was really horrible...we had to have the printer cleaned thoroughly before putting toner back in

It's not entirely empty. Press the top button- holding it for a few seconds- then let go. It will start the printing. It's usually good for another several photo prints before it tells you again to replace the tank. Do it or it won't print. You can damage a printer by not replacing the tanks at this point! It will suck air instead of ink and you'll need to RESET it or take it to a service center. There is info on youtube about many aspects of printing.

Ours has done the same thing--not happy with this printer at all. Try taking a pencil eraser and clean the sensors on each cartridge --you don't have to remove them as you can reach them by opening the machine in front. Then restart and see if that helps. Ours has had to have this done several time.

Try turning off 2 sided button on printerTry going to Devices and Printers from Windows Start menu.Right click on printer preferences; click advanced and turn off two side properties.Then if neither works must say I have had help from their customer service.Good Luck

Do you have an online manual? All the answers can be found in it. I believe you can press and hold the STOP button to clear it. Check your paper and ink, too.

I finally called a copier repair person for this problem. He had a easy, but counterintuitive, solution. Clean the paper feed roller with WD40. He explained why it worked (which I don't remember), but it certainly did work. Wipe off any excess of course.

Yes, toss it and move on with life. Mine was terrific at first too, and then converted itself into a piece of junk that defied every effort to restore it. This printer turned out to be a waste. I even bought a replacement print head for mine, and a ton of ink cartridges. Big mistake.

There is no answer, all it says is that answer lies with the software. The disk says my printer and he disks have a problem. Does not say how to fix the problem.

there is a way to reset the printer to factory settings, I had to do it a few times when I had this printer. Call HP and ask them for the reset sequence.
