Deleting unwanted print job

[PaulY]

Hi all

Whilst trying something out, I sent a lot of gobbleggook to the Retro_Printer resulting in it starting to print multiple pages with a few charcters on each. I thought that by disconnecting and turning off the sending computer, the Retro-printer and my wi-fi printer everything would be lost, but when I turned everything on the next day the printer continued printing the gobbledgook pages, which could go on forever. What is the simplest way of deleting the print job that keeps going on forever to stop it printing?

Thanks Paul

You can get exactly the same problem on Windows - it is down to the printer spooler.

You would need to connect to the CUPS interface using //retro-printer:631 (or possibly https://[ip address]:631 and remove the print job from the queue.

Done it. Very easy when you know how. Thank you - Hopefully I'll be less of a pain soon when I get more familiar with things
