Thanks to all for help.  My case was, I think, the one described: even canceled
the jobs from PC, the printer was continuing printing and only turning it off
could stop it...  After turning it on again, it started printing again but only
a few more pages, then stopped definitely.  Before turning it off, I had also
deleted the printer from CUPS managing centre, but this was maybe not
important.
