[SLUG] Deleting Printing File

If this has been posted my apologies. For some reason I am having problems
with my ISP over sending mail.

I have a 30 page completely corrupted printer file in Queue that I am trying
to delete. By corrupted I mean that it prints 1 to 2 lines of random
characters on a page and then ask for a new page.

Anyway, I have deleted 2 similar files that were in queue by using the KDE
print queue controller but this file refused to delete even though I am doing
this as root and I have rebooted the machine twice after delete attempts. Is
there another way to remove this file besides passing about a ream of paper
through the printer?

Thanks
Frank
