PIXMA TR4520 prints old jobs

mwalla19 — Tue, 09 Jan 2024 14:08:34 GMT

My Canon Pixma TR 4520 continues to print old jobs at random. There is nothing in the print queue and we have powered down and even unplugged the printer to try and clear any print jobs but to no avail. It contines to print an old job. Right now there are 9 copies of the same document it has printed at random over the past few days.

Any ideas?

Hi mwalla19,

What version of Windows is installed on your computer?

If you are using a Mac, what version of OSX is installed?

Also, are you using your PIXMA TR4520 wirelessly? or with a USB cable?

The situation seems to have stopped on its own. we have used the printer several times since my initial post and it has ceased printing out old jobs. i will keep these instructions in my files in case it starts up again.
