I have a smart tank.  There is a printing error with one document.  It won't allow me to cancel the document.  I can't print any documents.

Welcome to the HP Community --

Start here:

===========================================

Windows - Print Queue / Print Service Reset

• In most cases, after a print job has been accepted, it is turned over the Windows Print Services for completion. 
• When a job is "stuck in the queue", it is sometimes because Print Services is stuck or otherwise “broken”.
• If the job is accepted and quickly disappears, it is perhaps the result of incorrect Temp folder permissions.
