No event is added to the System log or to an operational channel when a print job is canceled or deleted

• Windows Vista
• Windows Server 2008

• When you delete or cancel a print job on the computer that is running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2, the event ID 310 is logged in an operational channel . For more information about the event ID 310 for a print job status, see the "More information" section.
