Solution 9: Check the print queue for canceled jobs

Solution: A print job might remain in the queue after it has been cancelled. The
cancelled print job jams the queue and prevents the next print job from printing.
From your computer, open the printer folder and see if the cancelled job remains in
the print queue. Try to delete the job from the queue. If the print job remains in the
queue, try one or both of the following:

Disconnect the USB cable from the product, restart the computer, and then
reconnect the USB cable to the product.

Shut down the product, restart the computer, and then restart the product.
