Cancel A Print On The Hp Photo C5280

The HP Photosmart C5280 is an all-in-one printer from Hewlett-Packard that can make copies, scan, and print documents and photos. It has a raised LCD screen that helps you choose options for printing. It also comes with a CD containing software for your computer that has all the information you need to make the most of your printer. HP also maintains a copy of the software and drivers, as well as the owner's manual, on the website.


Instructions


Cancel Printing From Your Computer


1. Click "Print" from a document or photo on your computer, and select your HP Photosmart C5280 as the printer for the job. A window will pop up displaying the printer and its current jobs.


2. Select the current print job in the pop-up printer window by clicking on it. It is now highlighted.


3. Click the "Cancel selected job" button in the upper right-hand corner. If you have multiple print jobs you want to cancel, don't select anything and instead click "Cancel all jobs" on the top right.


Cancel Printing Directly from Your Printer


4. Look at your printer's LCD screen and read the message. If it says "Queueing print job" press the red Cancel button. It may not work until it switches to "Printing," so keep pressing the button every few seconds until the screen says "Canceling."


5. Remove the paper from the paper tray if step 1 isn't working. The paper tray is in the front middle at the very bottom of the printer. Pull it open and pull out all the paper. Now the LCD screen will say "Out of paper--refill paper." Push the "Cancel print" button.


6. Unplug the printer if for some reasons steps 1 and 2 fail to work. This could include if it's halfway through printing a page and you need it to stop immediately.
