Someone using the account stef (Stefan Budca) attempted to print a 1MB
postscript file that just had 10,102 pages of "nothing" on them on the
printers ajax, python, and pulp in the Student Center on Sunday around
5:56pm. It looks like the person didn't know what he/she was doing and
mistakenly attempted to print a ditroff file incorrectly, resulting in
a file that had 10,102 pages of junk (%%Page: 10102 10102).
All I did was delete the individual queued item(s) from the print queues
and restarted the print queues on the print servers.
