Stopping the offending sender is one thing. But is there anything one can do *immediately* to stop from printing out the entire document of an unwanted super-long fax? Once we realized we were getting another long, unwanted fax, we wanted to stop it from printing, but couldn't find any way to do and we wanted to stop it *now*. We ended up just unplugging the machine to get it to stop.

My fax machine Samsung LaserFax 560. The first page gets stuck, but not the second pg. After 4 to five attempts, pgs run fine. If it stop faxing, I will have the same problem with the 1st pg...

Try cleaning the paer feed roller with a detrgent based industrial cleaner/ not an alcohol based one as this will dry out the roller and make your problem worse. If you are in a humid environmentyou may need to replace the paper in the paper tray and "fan" it prior to use, or it could be the paper feed clutch itself, which would be more complicated to remove clean and lube.

Says printing but nothing is coming out

If it says it is printing and no paper is being fed, and you are not getting any paper jam indicators, thats not good.
To get this reset you may have to do a RAM CLEAR. This will mean all documents in memory and all programming in the machine( date, time, quick dial numbers etc, etc) will all be lost, and will have to be re-entered.
If you want to try the RAM CLEAR do the following....
Press Program, *, 3.....display should say All RAM Clear ( enter/cancel).....to perform the Ram Clear press ENTER
To finish without doing the Ram clear press CANCEL.

I have (4) documents to print, but it won't print. It says: 4 document(s) pending owner

To cancel a print job in Windows you can use one of the following two methods:

CANCELLING A PRINT JOB WITH THE PROGRESS METER:
When you send a print job to the printer, the Status Monitor will appear in the bottom right corner of your screen. Another printer icon for the PROGRESS METER will also appear in the taskbar while printing is taking place. This PROGRESS METER is there so you can manage print priorities or cancel print jobs.

1. Highlight the print job in the PROGRESS METER box.
2. Click on DOCUMENT and CANCEL, or, right click on the job name and left click CANCEL or DELETE.
3. Confirm cancelling the print job.

CANCELLING A PRINT JOB FROM THE PRINTERS WINDOW:
If no PROGRESS METER appears, you can access the document queue in this fashion:

1. Open START, SETTINGS, CONTROL PANEL, PRINTERS (START, CONTROL PANEL, PRINTERS and FAXES in Windows XP).
2. Right click on your Epson printer name, left click PURGE PRINT JOBS (98,ME), or CANCEL ALL DOCUMENTS (2000,XP). (Or, double-click on the printer name to see and modify the status of documents in queue.)
3. Confirm cancelling all documents.

Keep in mind that once information has been sent to the printer it resides in the spooling folders within Windows. It may a while for printing to stop as this data clears the system.

If the printer continues to print (ie multiple copies of a cancelled job, or garbled print) remove the rest of the paper from the printer and allow it to run out. Once an "out of paper" type error appears on your screen, cancel the documents. Once all print job information has deleted, reload the paper and press the paper feed button once to clear the red light and return the printer to a ready state.
