Ever got a print job that just won't go away, no matter how hard you click the delete button? Follow these simple steps and you will be back an empty print queue in no time!

  1. Stop the print spooler service.
  2. Delete the .spl and .shd files from %SystemRoot%\System32\Spool\Printers that have the same date modified as the stuck print job.
  3. Start the print spooler service back up.
  4. Tell the user how awesome you are that you didn't have to restart their computer. (Optional)
