Clearing the Printer Queue Print Jobs For HP Printer Products

The printer software will not operate the printer if there are other print jobs waiting to print. Therefore any jobs waiting to be printed must be cleared. The software can automatically clear print jobs on MS Windows XP and 2000. Clearing print jobs on Windows 98se and ME must be manually done. The following instructions, included in the kit, explain how to clear print jobs.

When print jobs are initiated they are stored in a print job list, also called a print queue. If the printer does not complete the print job (because the printer is off-line, or the print spooler failed), the print job will remain in the print queue causing it to become backed up. Follow the steps below to clear out the print queue.

Clearing out the print queue

1. Click Start, click Settings, and then click Printers.
2. Double-click the Printer to open the print queue.
3. Click the Printer menu.
4. Select Pause Printing if it is not already selected. This will stop all printing to the printer.
5. Click the Printer menu again, select Purge Print Documents or Cancel All Documents, and then click Yes to confirm the action.
6. If there are any documents left in the queue, un-pause the print queue by clicking the Printer menu, and then selecting Pause Printing to resume printing.
7. Click the Printer menu again, and then click Purge Print Documents or Cancel All Documents.
8. If there are still documents in the queue, restart the computer.
9. Once the computer has restarted, check the print queue to ensure that it is clear.

Solution Center.msi Popup When Starting HP Solution Center

SolutionCenter.msi pops up when you try to start HP Solution Center, out of my experience this usually occurs when you first installed the solution center software from the downloaded file(through the website) when you double click on it, it extracts the files to temporary location with a specified name, that folder is currently not available to reinstall Hp solution Center.

You Can try the below solution to resolve the issue, browse for the Hp Solution Center.msi in your product software cd or as suggested in the forums try to install the new patch which is available to download here, namely eSupport_hpcom_130_011.exe, (1/1 , 44.52M)

The patch is released by HP as Solution Center Update to correct the following two issues.
1) Solution Center prompting for disk when launched or during a pc reboot and
2) Prevents an application error with hpqgpc01.exe when PC is shut down.

With this update your solution center might get updated to version 13.0 if you have 12.0 solution center previously. Solution Center 13 works beautifully, far better than the version 10 I was using before that was full of problems. This patch can also resolve No HP Devices Detected Error as saw posted by some HP AIO users.

Released: 2009-11-14
Version: 13.0
File name: eSupport_hpcom_130_011.exe, (1/1 , 44.52M)
