I had a receipt webpage that was generated as the result of a payment.
I normally keep generated receipts as .pdf files by printing as "Save
to PDF…. I accidentally pressed "Print" instead of "Save to PDF…" and
then closed the browser window, so the generated page no longer
exists, I think it was a pop-up window?. The printer was turned off,
so the page never printed, but is most likely cached in the printer
spooler. Is there any way to retrieve this receipt as a PDF file? I'm
on a G5 w/10.5.8 and an HP PSC1210 printer. I suspect I'd need to
print the page and then scan it to PDF, rather than being able to
locate the stored file which isn't a PDF.

Yes, I'd bet you'll see it there, but only for printing. Good news is that
you still have the receipt, most likely.
