heh, you have much to learn. :-) the terminal area is command line only, so most windows/gui commands (delete/copy/paste) do not work the same. Ok, so basically, what the lpq command is returns a bunch of info for the job queues. then as root, type in lprm 1234 (1234 being one of the job ids) try that and let us know how that works. -Robby -- /*************************************** * Robby Russell | Owner.Developer.Geek * PLANET ARGON | www.planetargon.com * Portland, OR | [EMAIL PROTECTED] * 503.351.4730 | blog.planetargon.com * PHP/PostgreSQL Hosting & Development ****************************************/
