Nothing came out, but at least the print queue no longer looked 'bunged up'. Examining the Completed Jobs list I found several entries like Printer-1144 smbprn.00000044 Home - Mandriva Anne 230k cancelled at Tue Nov 14 22:10:06 2006 I did not cancel anything - it wouldn't let me. Looking at the timestamps for the cancellations, though, maybe it did cancel, or at least mark it to be cancelled later. I then, as root, tried to restart the last job (tried it on another one, too) and got Error: client-error-not-possible I have only ever seen that in the past when I was not logged in as root. Has *anyone* any idea what is happening? It doesn't make any sense to me at all. I'm beginning to wonder if an update has introduced a bug. Anne
