I always have PrintManager running in the background with the Queue option
on.  I keep it hidden until I realize that I made a boo-boo.  Then, double-
click on the app icon, look at the Queue window and you will see a Delete
option.  Highlight the boo-booed document and hit delete.  Ta-da.
You could always hit the 'cancel' button on the print pop-up panel, but that
only works about 70% of the time.
