I am using Puppy 4.12 on a very old and beat PII 350 I have been trying for several hours (about four) to print a copy of a .pfd.
Nothing seems to work and I think it's been about a year since I last used the printer. I have never liked the way it worked in Linux.
I send a job and it gets in the queue but doesn't get printed. See cup.jpg (below) When I try to delete the print job I get an error message. See jobs.jpg (below)
How do I delete these jobs?
How can I get these or similar jobs to print?
What causes the HOLD JOB message?

Try the command
Note the dash character on the end.
Once you get the old jobs cleared, try printing a test page.
Code: Select all

This cleared up queue of unprocessed jobs, but printing a test page just setup another unprocessed print job. See job2.jpg (below)rcrsn51 wrote:Try the command

How do I get it to print? Jobs seem to disappear, but nothing gets printed.
How do I print a .pdf file?
