do an
lpstat printername

see if the jobs are there.

If there try

disable printername
reject printername
enable printernam
accept printername

lpstat printername again to see it they're gone.
It could take a few seconds.


look in /var/adm/lp/log to see if the jobs were created and sent.

if so, then you have to look at printer or printserver if remote, network if it's a network printer
