You want to kill a user? Thats understandable but extreem, most of us just
learn to live with them.

We need more info on what you are trying to do. Kill all processes that are
running as a particular user? Cant see that you could do this without
being root, unless you are themself.
The print queue script will also depend on what print software you are
using (and how it's been installed)
