- TITLE :Print Jobs Stay in Queue After Printing
- PRODUCT :Windows NT
- PROD/VER:3.10
- OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
- KEYWORDS:
-
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- The information in this article applies to:
-
- - Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- - Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

- SYMPTOMS
- ========
-
- When you print to a Windows NT server with queue attached to a
- Hewlett-Packard (HP) JetDirect card, print jobs may not be removed
- from the print queue. The print job is sent to the print server, it
- prints, but the print job is not removed from the queue.
-
- CAUSE
- =====
-
- This behavior happens when Advanced Job Status is chosen in Print
- Manager. This options should be turned off in most printers. To check
- the setting of Advanced Job Status, do the following:
-
- 1. In the Print Manager window, choose Printer from the File menu.
-
- 2. Choose Properties.
-
- 3. From the Print To menu, choose Network Printer.
-
- 4. Select Hewlett-Packard Network Port, and then choose the Port
- option.
-
- When the Advanced Job Status is chosen the job will not be removed
- from the print queue unless the printer supports bidirectional
- communication. The queue is waiting for confirmation from the printer
- that the job is complete. Most printers do not have the ability to
- send the confirmation.
-
- MORE INFORMATION
- ================
-
- The HP LaserJet 4 supports bidirectional communication. A LaserJet
- with the Windows Printing System also supports bidirectional
- communication, but the Windows Printing System is not supported under
- Windows NT 3.1.
