Managing Print Jobs on the Fly
|
Did ya know?... When you print, a printer icon appears in your system tray until the printing has completed. Double-click this icon and a window for the printer opens. You can see a list of the print jobs waiting to print and the status of the current job that's printing. Want to pause or cancel a job in the list? Right-click on it and make your selection from the menu. If you want to change the priority of a job in the list, simply drag it up or down in the list.
Here's how to quickly cancel an outgoing Word print job:
How many times have you sent a document to the printer, only to realize that you need to make a correction to it and then print it again? If you have quick fingers, you can easily use Word to cancel a print job that you've already sent to the printer. The method you use depends on whether Background Printing is active. This feature uses additional system memory to allow you to continue working in Word while a document is being printed.
However, it usually takes a little bit longer for documents to print when Background Printing is turned on. To check whether Background Printing is active in Word, choose Tools | Options from the menu bar and then click on the Print tab. Select or clear the Background Printing check box in the Printing Options panel, and then click OK. When Word's Background Printing feature is turned off, you can cancel an outgoing print job simply by pressing the [Esc] key or clicking Cancel when Word notifies you that it's sending your document to the printer.
