Never ending tiny print jobs

I saw this happen before but I forget how I stopped it. My printer document queue lists thousands of very tiny print jobs, yet nothing is actually printing. I can clear them all out but it just starts growing again from scratch. Anyone know what's going on?

As I said, I can clear it just fine, but then new ones get added.

Follow my posts and then reboot.
See how that goes

If that does not work.
Delete, then uninstall driver. Boot, reinstall driver, boot that should clear everything.

If even that does not work, run a full anti virus scan, download and make a full scan with malwarebytes.

You might want to scan for malware. The current suggestions here are malwareabytes and microsoft security essentials.
