Back I can't seem to rid of a print job using CUPS, even after I cancel the job *and* turn off the printer. Something always seems to come out when I turn the printer back on. Usually it's garbage, but it wastes paper, and I don't know how many pages are going to get printed before CUPS decides to honor my request.
Canceling and turning off the printer worked with lpr. What am I doing rong?
I'm using Red Hat 8, Ximaian Desktop 2, both fully updated. I have a NEC SuperScript 870 laser printer.
Printing with CUPS basically works (except for the above problem), but is much, much slower than lpr-based printing. lpr-based printing worked just fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
