    How do I flush my print queue in Linux?

    How do I flush my print queue in Linux? I observe wherever I be able to handle my printers, except at what time I hit "Edit Queue", it take me on the way to my printer driver. I'm attempting to set up a printer which I've by no means used previous to in Linux as well as am having problem out of it, probably from my elder driver although. I have set it as default, except I imagine that it at rest has stuff in the elder driver so as I at a standstill have installed at the side of the fresh driver. This printer is working in a alike configuration beneath Windows however I do the majority of my "work" under Linux.

    Unsurprisingly I originate the KDE queue tool presently subsequent to I position this. Why do I keep doing that? Anyhow, I am grateful for your answer. My printer is not functioning by this occasion, as well as I am using the 4019 driver. It's spitting out garbage which is why I was thinking it was using the incorrect driver. I have furthermore noticed so at the same time as to there are three diverse drivers intended for it, moreover I had to download one in order to get it working. Will I need to download a new RPM for it?

What could be the agreement? Does RedHat 9 actually make use of CUPS? Or have somebody take notice of that it make use of something else? How would I be familiar with, as well as if I have a number of print managers, how would I be familiar by means of which one's handling it?
