Printer stopped printing:Printer is connected, setup, all drivers installed was printing and stopped after one document?
When a printer doesn't PRINT ONE PAGE -
STOP PRINTING! You just keep filling up the print que.
With Windows it must print the next thing on the list. Windows can NOT skip one bad page t just won't print anything else.
Most people will just keep trying and trying by sending 10, 20, 30 new print jobs to the printer. :( Definition of INSANITY? :)
So when ONE DOCUMENT DOESN'T PRINT - STOP PRINTING!
1. Bottom right if your taskbar is on the bottom. Top right if your taskbar is on top, click the little white arrow to see hidden icons.
2. Look for "What's Printing" left click or double left click and open that box.
3. Either (that's Ether NOT Ither) right click and cancel on the print job with an error or if you have sent 20 jobs to the que?
Check on file menu look for CANCEL ALL PRINT JOBS.
4. Once they all delete (It's Winblows so it can take up to 5 minutes depend on how many things are in the print que) try printing something else.
NOT the same page or print job that would not print last time.
5. If something else prints without a problem? Check the original document that would not print, make sure it's now write-protected, corrupt, bad characters...
If you still have things that will not delete from the print que?
1. turn of the printer, unplug the printer.
2. Search "Services" scroll down looking for "Print Spooler", right click and select STOP.
(leave services open)
3. Open your Windows File Explorer ( NOT INTERNET EXPLORER), Go to the folder C:\Windows\Sytem32\spool\
PRINTERS and delete all the items in that folder.
4. Go back to the services window you left open and right click "Print Spooler" and select start.
5. plug the printer back in, turn it back on and try to print again?
If it's printing all is good!
If it's still not printing ANYTHING it could be a bad printer, low ink or toner, bad drivers...
