If you regularly print documents on your computer you will eventually encounter a rather annoying problem: stuck print jobs. It happens that a print job gets stuck somehow. Sometimes these print jobs cannot be deleted from the print queue. The consequence is that all later print jobs will be blocked by the stuck one.
We already mentioned how you can manually deal with stuck print jobs which basically involved stopping the Print Spooler service in Windows and deleting the stuck print jobs manually in the Windows directory.
Disabling and enabling the Print Spooler service and deleting files is definitely not the most comfortable way of dealing with stuck print jobs. The portable software Stalled Printer Repair (via Instant Fundas) offers a one-click solution to the problem. This is good news for everyone who has to deal with stuck print jobs regularly on his computer system.
The software program will detect a stuck print job automatically and display them in the program’s interface. A click on the Purge Print Job button will delete all stalled print jobs on the computer system so that the printer queue and printer can be used again on the computer.
