Typically, the log contains one line for each print job, in this format:

Canon_iX6500_series jr 13 [17/Dec/2014:14:12:52 -0800] 1 1 - localhost
(stdin) - -

As I explained in my reply to David, I have a script that monitors this
log file to remind me to print something every couple months to help
avoid potential ink nozzle / print head clogging.
