Canceling a print job
You can cancel a print job from a software application or a print queue.
To stop the printer immediately, remove the remaining paper from the printer. After the
printer stops, use one of the following options.
● Software application: Typically, a dialog box appears briefly on your screen, allowing
you to cancel the print job.
● Windows print queue: If a print job is waiting in a print queue (computer memory) or
print spooler, delete the job there. Click Start, Settings, and Printers or Printers and
Faxes. Double-click the HP LaserJet 1018 icon to open the window, select your print
job, and click Delete or Cancel.
If the status lights on the control panel continue to blink after you cancel a print job, the
computer is still sending the job to the printer. Either delete the job from the print queue or
wait until the computer finishes sending data. The printer will return to the Ready state.
