You can check your /etc/lpd.conf and add the line "done_jobs=0"
We had the same problem and it was solved by this.

Objet : [Samba] Print Jobs stuck in queue
Hi,
I have a RedHat7.3 distro running Samba-2.2.3a. I've never had this problem
before 2.2.x versions of samba. I'm using domain security and sharing 2
printers, an HP4050 and Ricoh. Everyone can print fine except that,
seemingly randomly, printjobs end up in the queue as paused (according to
winXPpro and Win98). Nobody can unpause or delete them. The only way to
remove them is to restart the original machine which sent the print job.
[root at mi etc]# lpq
Printer: RICOH at mi (dest PORT1 at 192.168.1.33)
Queue: no printable jobs in queue
Server: no server active
Status: job 'debbie at mi+521' saved at 09:53:31.613
Rank Owner/ID Class Job Files Size Time
done frontdesk at mi+889 A 889 smbprn.005492.1eEr 5075043
12:43:56
done debbie at mi+521 A 521 smbprn.005668.81Su 1153005

Printer status : Idle.(Ready.)
Online/Offline : Online.
no entries.
The two that say "done" are the jobs which appear as paused in the windows
printer queue. The only way I can remove them without restarting windows
machines is to manually delete the queue files from /var/spool/RICOH which
are cfA*, dfA*, and hfA*. There may be a more elegant way to delete them
via command line, but I don't know it.
[root at mi RICOH]# ll /var/spool/lpd/RICOH/
