To restart printing a document

When you restart printing a document, it starts printing again from the beginning. If higher priority documents are in the print queue, they will print first.

By default, all users can pause, resume, restart, and cancel printing of their own documents. However, to manage documents printed by other users, you must have the Manage Documents permission, which is one of several printer permissions.

  1. Open Printers and Faxes.

  2. Double-click the printer you are using to open the print queue.

  3. Right-click the document for which you want to restart printing, and then click Restart.

Notes

  • To open Printers and Faxes, click Start, and then click Printers and Faxes.

  • You can also open the print queue in Printers and Faxes by clicking a printer, and then clicking See what's printing under Tasks on the left side of the window. This option is available only if folders are set to look like a Web page and a printer is selected. For more information, click Related Topics.

Information about functional differences

  • Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
