This is a separate question. Is there some reason that a printer should

I put in a request at pulp about ten minutes ago, and although the printer
keeps taking long breaks, my file isn't advancing up the queue:

I've stayed at 13 for a long, long time. What's the story?

It seems the printer is jamed or needs new toner
