This is how I do it: 1. In a browser go to: http://127.0.0.1:631/ 2. Click on "Administration" and enter root + root password 3. Click "Manage Jobs" 4. Click "Cancel Job" on the same line as the print job. Close browser. 5. In a console: su to root 6. # cd /var/spool/cups # ls -a # rm -f <job number> 7. Turn the printer off, wait a while then turn it back on. Sharrea -- Help Microsoft stamp out piracy - give Linux to a friend today
