Print queue problem (apparently)

I'm enjoying my first adventure into Linux (FC3), but a month into it and I'm having a printer problem. During the boot process, before reaching the login screen, my printer starts printing out about three pages of something I printed a while ago. After login, I looked for the print manager, but it doesn't exist. Whasupwiddat? And what can I do to resolve the problem?

You can use the lpq command to see what's in the print queue then the lprm <job#> to remove the job from the queue. As to why it's happening I don't know. I have print issues too.

Success! Thanks. I still would like to get the print manager working again, but that's a problem for another day.
