    Default

    You can open a terminal (Applications, Accessories)

    After that enter the command

    lpq

    Which will present you the print job’s ID that are in the line

    You can after that cancels the job you want with the command

    lprm ID

    The command lprm lacking arguments shall stop the actual print job

    For further details type as "man lprm" in the terminal

    Hope that helps
