Error Processing Command When Trying To Set Default Printer
Entries RSS Comments RSS WordPress.com Trouble deleting or canceling a print job inWindows? March 17, 2007 -- latestarters The glitch I had in printing was that I was unable to cancel a bad print job from the http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-hardware/printer-says-error-processing-command-and-will-not/c82ab7a0-c2b1-4672-8dda-007e8cafa0c9 printing queue. It simply sat in front of the queue of print jobs without being printed or deleted. I am running Windows XP Professional, however, this experience may happen on all Windows operating systems. The reason for this glitch is that the print manager was not able to delete the spooler file caching the print job. Therefore, the solution is to remove the print job manually. 1. Locate the print job under the print spooler https://latestarters.wordpress.com/2007/03/17/trouble-deleting-or-canceling-a-print-job-in-windows/ directory. It's usually under %SystemRoot%\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\PRINTERSwhere %SystemRoot% is the installation directory of Windows OS. 2. You can find the files according to time stamp and size, and try to delete them, however, it usually doesn't work because there is a lock on these files by the "Print Spooler" service. 3. Click "Control Panel" -> "Administrative Tools" -> "Services" and find "Print Spooler". The "Status" column shows "Started". Right click the service to "Stop" it. 4. Leave the "Services" open and go back to the directory in Step 1 to delete those files. 5. Go back to the "Services" windows and right click the "Print Spooler" service to "Start" it again.

Are you running Windows? If so, restarting your computer usually helps. If it doesn't, follow these steps (you need to be an administrator): 1) Right click on 'My Computer' (should be located on the desktop). 2) Click "Manage" 3) On the window that opens, expand the section that says "Services and Applications" 4) Click on "Services" 5) Locate the service named "Print Spooler" on the right 6) Right click on "Print Spooler" and hit "Restart" 7) Give it a few minutes (or restart again), and your printer cache should be empty. Hope this helps!
