Hello,
    I've got a cups printer connected to a centos5 machine. This box is 
sharing it's printer via samba. Last evening a box spewed about ten or more 
print jobs to the queue and i need to clean out the queue. On the box itself 
i've done an lpq trying to see the existing jobids so i could use lprm to 
kill them and i aam seeing that there are no jobs for the default printer. 
That's the printer for the unix machine, i was hoping to see the second raw 
print queue where the jobs most likely are. If there's an easier way i'm all 
for it, when i enable the cups service the printer starts spitting out 
paper.
    Thanks.
Dave.
