[gui-talk] clearing a document from the Braille Blazer's memory

It only shows two printers and one of the headings as I tab through is 
drivers, but I don't see anything else.

Sherry,

It won't likely be listed as the Braille Blazer.  Your translator is 
probably installing a print driver of some kind to work with
all braille printers or it could be using the "generic" printer driver.  You 
could also see some PDF printers as well and
these would not be the correct ones.  However, unless you have many of 
these, you could go into each and look at the
file menu for the "cancel" option.  If there are no documents being held, 
you won't find the "cancel" option by arrowing
around.  If you find a printer that lets you cancel the held documents, you 
have probably solved your problem.  If none of
the printers have a "cancel" option on the file menu, then, a held document 
may not be your problem.  Maybe someone
else here knows which printer driver names are commonly used by Duxbury and 
Megadots.
