Adding on to the grocery list of problems ive been having with XP...There a
new one, I can't print anymore!

Apparently XP can't handle as simple a task at print queing. When I try to
print an email...or any document for that manner, it puts it in the que, but
can't print it because of a failed attempt earlier. What had happened, is i
tried to print from another computer on the network, and surprise surprise it
failed! I figured no biggie, but now its stuck in the que and i cant delete
it! It's stuck on "deleting printing" and i cant print anything else! Ive
tried rebooting and (obviously) cancelling it, no such luck.

What do I do here?

Turn off the printer. Unplug it from the wall and let it sit. Go have a
cup of tea or whatever and calm down. Then go back and turn on the
printer again. Hopefully enough time will have passed and its buffer
will have been cleared.

Start menu/Run/services.msc. Scroll to Print Spooler. Click on it. Stop the
service Then restart the service.
