tasks.
•
Check the status.
•
Change printers.
•
Access the Print Queue.

Connect or Disconnect.
Connection Manager icons
The Connection Manager has a number of icons to tell you the status of the Network Print Adapter. The three common
ones are described below.

the job to delete it from the print queue.

your computer is connected to.
