Removing printer setup connections to wireless printerserver

My sister's wireless network is via Wi-Fi Modem w/ Cable.

Yesterday (Monday), I successfully set up the D-Link DPR 1260 wireless
printserver to be used with HP OfficeJet 5610 All-in-one.

This morning, printing wirelessly, i.e. no physical connection from
printserver to the wireless network, was working fine but after I
tested the SCAN feature - success, when I needed to print a letter, it
wouldn't print.

Btw, last night (Monday), the successful set-up was with USB port no. 3
on the printserver - I couldn't delete the connection initially
connected to Port no 1 btw - but the print dialog box was showing that
it was with the printer set up at USB port_2.

Anyway, today, tech support put me on a wild goose chase making me use
different USB ports and now all 4 ports have been utilized but none
working w/ or w/o network cable from printerserver to wireless network,
and I can't delete the printers under "Control Panel's Printers and
Faxes" because I get a message that would say "Operations cannot be
performed. There are print jobs ...".

I want to remove all these connection set ups made on all 4 different
USB ports on the printserver and then start the setup from scratch but
this time, leaving physical connection between the printserver and the
wireless network (LAN).

I am asking for help in need removing these connections under Printers
Faxes under "Control Panel".

On the bottom right of your screen you should have some icon of the
printer, right click on it and say open - this will show the print
queue, select one job at a time and take the option to cancel the print
job.
Once all have been cancelled you should be able to delete the printers
and faxes.

You might have more than one printer queue (if you named the printers
differently) if so you will have to repeat the first step (above).

Good luck

I would uninstall the server software and the printer ports also before
reinstalling and reboot the system before you start the installation
process.

Problem was I couldn't cancel the jobs because they were in the process
of being printed. I retsrated the pc and that took care of it.
