Hi guys
and thanks for the suggestions. Michael's response reminded me that I
had previously gone into kde > peripherals > printer, and deleted print
jobs there. I did try the command line but got "no such command" or
something - sorry didn't make a note of it. The kde thing worked anyway.
No - it's an Epson C61, and pclinuxos (sort of mandriva based).
Anyway thanks.
Rose
