You need to delete teh print job from the connected PC first.  Otehrwise the printer will jsut resume printing from where it left off according to the print job on that PC.

 

Easiest way to do that is to reboot the connected PC you attempted to print the job from.  The reboot will clear the local printer queue and stop the job from continuing.
