Here are the steps to remove a print job from the print queue in Windows:
1. **Open the print queue.** To do this, you can search for "Printers & scanners" in the Windows Search bar, then select your printer and click "Open queue".
2. **Cancel the print job.** You should now see a list of all current print jobs. Right-click on the job you want to cancel, then select "Cancel".
3. **Confirm cancellation.** Windows will ask you to confirm that you want to cancel the print job. Click "Yes" to confirm.
If the print job does not disappear from the queue or the printer continues to print, you may need to restart the printer or the print spooler. To do this, follow these steps:
1. **Open the Services app.** You can do this by typing "Services" into the Windows Search bar and clicking on the app.
2. **Find the Print Spooler service.** Scroll down until you find a service called "Print Spooler". Right-click on this service and select "Restart".
If all else fails, you may need to turn off your printer and unplug it from its power source. After waiting for a few moments, plug the printer back in and turn it on. Then, try removing the print job from the queue again.
