Powerbook 1.5 fan runs almost constantly

Since installing the last few updates, my machine seems to run hotter and causes the fan to run constantly once it warms up...

Any cures?

TIA

If you were to go to activity monitor, whats % is your computer running at?

in checkint the Activity Monitor I found that the "print job manager" was using about 80 percent of the CPU. What gives? I don't even have a printer attached to the computer?

TIA

Well, to be honest, I don't know why it's running at full cpu, so I hope someone else posts that knows why but for now, you can end that task.

I quit the Print Manager and now temp runs about 110 degrees...

Many thanks for the help...

110 degrees? Is that normal? My Macbook Pro runs at 50 degrees.
