Use your printer queue administration commands to remove
the bogus  print job.

Canon refuses to recognize linux.  In fact, when I once
sent an e-mail about printer drivers for Linux, they
didn't even have the courtesy to even REPLY with a
form letter.

Screw them.
If they can't be bothered to support me, then I can't
be bothered to give them my money.

I'll buy anything except Canon.  Epson works great,
and HP works even better (although HP doesn't offer
quite as high resolutions as Epson's printers).
