To clean up your disk space, run
cancel -a
in a terminal window or remove all jobs in the job viewer. This way the
stuck jobs get canceled and their spool files removed.
Your error_log shows that Ghostscript is failing to convert the
Postscript coming from the Flash Player to PDF. This stops the print
jobs leaving the spool file on the disk. They stay there until
reprinting or canceling the jobs. Reprinting would only work after
replacing Ghostscript with a version which is capable of converting the
files (would perhaps work if you update to Lucid, but you tell in the
forum that you want to finish your project first).
I have also tried on a Karmik machine (64-bit) which also runs
Ghostscript 8.70. For me printing the document which is accessed by your
link works. It takes some time longer than most other print jobs but it
comes out. According to "lpstat -o" my spool files are not so big as
yours, around 58 MB. Due to a bug in the Flash Player it is always
printed by the default printer and always the whole document, print
queue or page selection in the Flash Player's printing dialog is already
ignored by Flash. CUPS receives always the full job without any argument
about the selected pages and probably also not with information about
the selected print queue, but this is a Flash bug.
The spool files are the files which the applications send to CUPS, this
means that your Flash Player sends 900-MB PostScript files to CUPS and
my Flash Player sends only 58 MB, which is still to much for 5 pages of
musical notes. Can you tell me which package version of Flash,
Ghostscript, and Firefox do you have installed? Which steps did you
exactly do to print from Noteflight?
