Always works for me.
Nope. "cancel" is the same as "lprm", and that's the first thing I
always try, in the forlorn hope that perhaps this time it will work.
Yes, the queue status says that it's empty but the printer keeps
spewing out the screwed-up binary.
It works fine (here) for removing yet-to-be-printed jobs from the
queue, but not for ones that have started printing.
