Whenever I print a document, my Driver believes that the printer is still printing said document until an error message is reported. If I try to delete the document from my feed after it has printed, it takes upwards of 15 minutes to delete the document. This is a really big problem especially when I need to leave in a rush.

Does anyone know what is going on?

The Print Service may be stuck.
