I purged jobs in my printer's queue, but one job stay and I can't delete it. It's impossible to delete it, the only way I found is to reboot my computer.

How to simply delete it ?

Thanks
 
If you share your printer with other users, the user that submitted the print job has to purge it from their computer.

If you do not share your printer with others, the cleanest way to remove the job is to restart your computer.
 
Try pausing the print job, then deleting it. this works for me. the one print job that won't delete is the current job.
 
Also try turning off the printer . The print job may have some information the printer won't accept and is causing the print job to freeze . By turning off the printer the job may be wiped from the printers buffer and the job might delete .
