Does the Linux have a print buffer? I had the wrong printer selected in the GIMP-print plugin (4.3.12) and I printed something.
Now everytime I turn on my computer and printer my printer prints crap and won't stop (so I turn the printer off).

======================

Bob, What Linux are you using and what print facility? Cups or lprng? Yes, there is a print queue and you might be able to start your print manager program to remove the offending file. Otherwise, you will have to go find the queue file and remove it. Mine are located at /var/spool/lpd and if you are using cups, then remove any .cf, .df or .hf files to clear the queue.

Thanks.

I think I installed cups and tried to print something. I ended up stepping back to make the GIMP print but something is printing pages of crap.
Maybe it I kill cupsd and restart. :-)

If you have lpr or lprng:
lpq (displays print queue)
lprm ## (removes print file number ##)

Then switch the printer off and on again.

OK?
