How to resolve multiple print commands problem in my printer?

Asked By julianne fergus 0 points N/A Posted on - 03/19/2012

I am using Windows 7 and Laser Jet printer P2014 which saves multiple print commands.

However, the commands cannot be remove from the printing command queue.

It continues even after switching of the printer and turning it on.

The same problem does not occur while using my laptop with Windows XP.
