With lpq you'll probably get the owner of the job as well in the listing. If the job owner isn't you then your user won't have permissions to remove the jobs. However, switching user to root (with the su - command) will probably do the trick. Try executing: su - and then: lprm from a terminal command prompt and see if that doesn't do it.
