I just printed to this printer about two weeks ago and it's been installed and printing for months/years. Tonight, I go to print a bank statement and the printer is in the list of available printers and shows as online. I press "print" and the icon shows by the clock, but then it either goes to idle or processing and then idle.
I went through administration AND the CUPS control in the browser to delete all jobs and also to try to uninstall the printer, restart the computer, and reinstall it.
I went to Brother and installed the drivers again.
I finally got a response on "print test page"-- except, it was page 7 of 29 from a website weeks ago--- which I CANCELLED, yet it's somehow still in there somewhere?? The last two things I've now tried to print act as if they're going to go through, but then the printer icon disappears and the queue is empty. Or, it's just adding itself into
the ghost queue? Good grief.So, how do I truly dump this frigging back-log of jobs that do not appear in the print queue AND how do I fully purge and get this printer back online?
It's so odd as it has worked fine since day one?
Help?
Thank you
