BR creates report files in the [[SpoolPath]] directory. If a program ends abnormally, any open report files will be left in the the directory. BR can accommodate up to 99 spool files per workstation ID. Periodically it is a good idea to remove old files from the spool directory.


Print or delete the files in the spooling print queue (Operating System allows up to ten files in the queue)
The spool directory is specified in the [[brconfig.sys]] file and can be identified by issuing a STATUS SUB command. Find the directory and remove the files it contains.


*Go to the computer which is the printer server (if you are on a single user system, you are already there)
*Click on Start >Settings >Control Panel >Printers,
*Right Click on Printer in Question,
*Click Purge Print Jobs.
You will loose information that has been sent to the printer, but not yet printed.  If a program produces this error on a regular basis, it is printing too fast, try putting a [[Sleep]] in the print loop.
