did you get any answers. Now my computer is doing something similar.
It
keeps printing smiley faces on every page and won't stop
1) Unplug printer. This should clear it's memory, which can
contain pages and pages of smiley faces.
2) Use lpq in a terminal window to get the job numbers of your
print jobs. (Line Printer Queue)
3) Use lprm followed by the job number to cancel the jobs
you don't want. Be root if necessary, but it probably won't be.
