I deleted a wireless HP laserjet P1102w printer from my printer list before deleting pending stocked jobs. So now I do not have access to this queue. When I try to uninstall the HP laserjet P1102w drivers I get a message that I cannot uninstall the drivers because there are jobs pending in the deleted printer.  I already deleted the queue from the device manager but I still get the same message and I cannot re-install de drivers. So I cannot print on this printer any longer. How do I delete these trapped jobs in the deleted printer??

Hi @agreatguille ,

 

I see that you are having issues uninstalling the printer, since there are jobs still in the queue, but the printer driver was already deleted. I would like to help.

Clear the Spool folder and restart the Print Spooler, to see if that will help.

What operating system are you using? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Have a nice day!
Thank You.
