How to print doc's in the printer queue

External Since: Jan 21, 2005 Posts: 96

Hi,

Once documents are in the printer queue, due to them not being able to be
printed for some reason, i.e. the printer not being plugged in for instance,
is there a way of starting them printing.

I have looked but do not see an option to "print printer queue" in any menu
box.

Is the only way to start the printer queue to wait until a reboot and be
advised that there are doc's in the printer queue and would you like to
print them.

Many thanks

Steve

In Printers folder, double-click the printer that has jobs waiting. It will
show the jobs that are waiting. The jobs will probably be listed as
"Paused". Select the job(s) you want to restart or cancel, right-click them
(or use Documents menu). To restart a job, click on Paused to uncheck it.
