I filled in printer "expresso" and bugged Hardcopy.  But it turned out that Expresso was unavailable, so I wanted to cancel that.'
'
(1) No way to cancel hardcopy.'
'
(2) Mouse was tied up.  Had to type ↑G and spawn mouse to get a mouse.'
'
(3) With mouse, brought up a PSW and killed the OLDMOUSE process that looked like it was trying to send file to printer.  Process went away okay, but Hardcopy button vanished from menu, leaving only the "server': {xxx}" part of that item.'

[mjs 4/5/84 --- is this last point worth another AR, or is it in the catagory "the user shouldn''t have been messing with that anyways"?]
