Everytime I attempt to print a document or email, my printer continues to print a document I printed two days ago. I only hit print once on that document which had 11 pages. I select a new document to print and the printer will print numerous copies of that old document. I have tried the cancel button on the printer and that hasn't worked. My printer remains off for the majority of the day and I only turn it on when I am using it. I have turned the printer on and off several times since I printed that document. My printer is connected to two laptops and these are the only devices that use my printer. What should I do to fix this? (my printer was purchased in August)

Hello, @KRH19 – Hope you are well 🙂
Thanks for engaging in the HP Forums! I see by your post that you are experiencing printer related issues. I will certainly do my best to help you!
Going through your post, it looks like an issue with the print spooler. Follow the steps below to clear the print spooler:
- Press “Windows key” + “r” to get the “Run” window.
- Type "services.msc" to get Services – Go to “Print spooler” – Right-click and “Stop” the service.
- Now again open "Run" - Type “spool” and ok - Go to PRINTERS folder - delete everything in that folder.
- Go to services again - Start the print spooler.
- Now check for issue resolution.
If the issue persists, also try clean installing the printer drivers. Here are the steps:
- First, unplug the USB cable from the printer, if present.
- Go to Control panel – Programs and feature – Select all the HP Deskjet printer entries and uninstall them.
- Now go to Control panel – Devices and printer – Select all the printer entries and remove the device.
- Press the "windows key" + "r" to get the "Run" window open - Type "printui.exe /s" (There is a space between .exe & /) and press enter.
- Under print server properties, go to drivers - remove any entry there as well.
- Again, go to the Run window, type – “c:/programdata” – Go to Hewlett Packard folder, remove any printer related folders & files.
- Restart your computer.
- Now, click on http://hp.care/2pEGHSh to download and install the software.
- Connect the USB cable if prompted and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
Please let me know if this resolves the issue, or if you require further assistance!
Good luck 🙂
