You may even know to use the Printer Spooler function in Windows XP and Vista. But it just shows it’s deleting the Print job but takes forever!

Here’s a quick tip.

Open a command prompt (go to Start | Run, then type cmd) and enter the following:

net stop spooler
del c:\windows\system32\spool\printers\*.shd
del c:\windows\system32\spool\printers\*.spl
net start spooler

It should kill all the pending jobs to your printer…

You can download the batch file from here.   killprinterjobs.bat
[Please check if your folder names are the same before using!
Right mouse click and save it to your main hard disk directory to run from cmd.]

Save some trees and recycle your paper.
