Print job not deleting

My day has been packed with problems that don't have answers in Googleland, so I gotta hit the forums with silly questions like, how do I delete a print job that won't disappear? It just sits there with status "Deleting". It's a corporate print server (Svr2008R2) so I can't just restart the spooler. Unless that's the only way. Any ideas?

You can manually try to delete the .SPL and .SHD files... I think you may have to stop the spooler though. I ran into a similar issue awhile back and even after restarting the spooler I had issues.... I ended up bouncing the server.

No problem thanks. Spooler restart schedule it is.
