>From a terminal window (or a text console) do:
lpq
and it will show you the jobs (if any) currently in the default print queue.
if you have more than one print queue defined, you can do:
lpq -Pprint-queue-name
To flush a job from the print queue, do:
lprm jobid
where the jobid is the value shown in the output from lpq.
