When to watch this video

Watch this if you want to see what is printing now, what is waiting behind it, and which job is holding the rest up.

It's filed under check current print jobs and cancel a print job in our printer queue video tutorials, where you can pick a problem and see only the videos for it.

The steps in short

The exact clicks in the video may differ a little from yours, but the fix comes down to these steps:

  1. Open the print queue for the printer you used.
  2. Read the Status column of the first job.
  3. Check the Pages and Owner columns to find your document.

If the steps don't match your screen

A video is recorded on one computer with one printer. Windows 11 and Windows 10 put printer settings in different places, macOS changes them between versions, and printer makers add their own apps on top. If a menu in the video isn't where you expect it, don't guess — the written check current print jobs guide covers each version step by step, with screenshots and what to do when the usual fix doesn't work.
