After the printer stops, use one of the following options: ● Software application: Typically, a dialog box appears briefly on your screen, allowing you to cancel the print job. ● Windows print queue: If a print job is waiting in a print queue (computer memory) or print spooler, you can delete the job from the Printer screen. If the status lights continue to blink after you cancel a print job, the computer is still sending the job to the printer. Either delete the job from the print queue or wait until the computer finishes sending data. The printer will return to the Ready state. Understanding print quality settings Print quality settings affect how light or dark the print is on the page and the style that the graphics are printed.
