To pause the current print job, you can follow these steps:
1. Open the print queue on your computer. This can usually be done by clicking on the printer icon in the system tray or by going to the Control Panel and selecting Devices and Printers.
2. Locate the print job that you want to pause in the print queue.
3. Right-click on the print job and select "Pause" from the drop-down menu. This will temporarily stop the printing process for that particular job.
4. To resume the print job, simply right-click on the paused job in the print queue and select "Resume" from the drop-down menu.
Alternatively, you can also pause a print job directly from the printer itself. Most printers have a pause button or a pause/resume option on their control panel. Pressing this button will temporarily stop the printing process until you press the button again to resume.
