Printing & Emailing Invoices

I'm importing invoices from an iif file and have the ones that need to be printed marked as "print later," They are coming up fine when I do a batch print but even though I click ok that they all printed properly, the "print later" box is still checked and they come up again the next time I select a batch to print. 

 

I don't think I'm having the same issue with emailed invoices but I've only tested on myself. I'm not ready to send my batch out yet.

 

Can anyone help?

It's nice to see you again in the Community, @bgeiger. I'm here to help remove your invoices from the print forms list. 

 

This issue can be resolved by installing the PDF & Print Repair Tool. Before doing so, make sure that your QuickBooks is updated to the latest release. Let me route you to this article for more detailed steps: Troubleshoot PDF and Print problems with QuickBooks Desktop.

 

However, if the issue persists after performing the troubleshooting steps, you can try sending the transactions to the printer that is not powered on. This is one of the suggested solutions provided by our Community backer. You can refer to this post for more information: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/community/Reports-and-accounting/How-do-I-clear-invoices-from-the-print-forms-list-there-are-500/td-p/202174.

 

This should help remove the invoices that were still in the print later queue. As always, you can access our site, if you need some related references in the future: Help articles for QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Keep me posted if you have other questions about printing & emailing invoices. I'll be here to help you out in any way I can.

Hi LilyC – thanks for your help. Unfortunately none of that worked, not even actually printing them to a printer that was turned on clears the print later check box! Gremlins I guess.

Allow me to chime in and point you in the right direction on how to clear out the print queue on your printer.
