<title>Cancel a print job</title>

  <p>If you accidentally started printing a document, you can quickly cancel the
 print so you don't need to waste any ink or paper. Click the printer icon on
 the top bar and then click <gui>Cancel</gui>.</p>

  <p>If this doesn't cancel the print job like you expected, try holding down
 the <gui>Cancel</gui> button on your printer.</p>

  <p>As a last resort, especially if you have a big print job with a lot of
 pages that won't cancel, remove the paper from the printer's paper input tray.
 The printer should realize that there is no paper and will stop printing. You
 can then try canceling the print job again, or try turning the printer off and
 then on again.</p>

 <note style="warning">
  <p>Be careful that you don't damage the printer when removing the paper,
 though - if you would have to pull hard on the paper to remove it, you should
 probably just leave it where it is.</p>
