Not sure if it will work - every time the printer senses that paper is loaded, it tells the print system that it is ready, and the server keeps on sending data for printing. Always happens when a paper curls back and gets back into the feed tray instead of comong out. Again, my experience only; cups + dot matrix printing; using cut sheet paper. And printing from LibreOffice/OO.o using the manual tray option. -- Mahesh T.

Arguably the most popular open desktop/laptop distributions of Linux are: - Ubuntu - Fedora - SuSE - Debian (my personal favourite) If you want to do the research, go to one of the sites other users have pointed you to, test out each distribution and stick to the one that suits you. If you're too lazy, just use Debian + KDE (purely my personal opinion).
