I thought I had the answer from an earlier community answer. But my PC will not allow me to click on the STOP Button to remove the offending document(s) from the list. ( I went through the Print Spooling Services route....)Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

@JACOBIN, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.
I understand the printer is printing previously printed documents. Let us try these steps:
Reset the printer
- With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
- Wait at least 60 seconds.
- Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.
- Turn ON the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.
- Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you proceed.
Note: HP recommends connecting the printer directly to a wall outlet rather than a surge protector or a power strip.
If this does not help, unplug the power cable and hold the power button down for 10-15 seconds and release it. Power on the printer and check.
Also, restart the computer.
