Printer Status - Xerox 5222 System Administration Manual

• -
You can delete all your print data by specifying this option. If this option is issued by
a superuser, all the print data received by the machine will be deleted.
This option is only valid in the spool mode.
NOTE: Print data which consist of multiple files sent in one print instruction cannot be
deleted file by file. All the files will be deleted together.
NOTE: This command is invalid if no options are specified, or if there is no print data
which matches the option.
NOTE: You can delete only print data from the same workstation used to send the
print data. You cannot delete print data sent by other workstations.
NOTE: When a command to delete print data is received, the file will be deleted even
if it is in the process of being printed. Any unprinted data will be cancelled after the file
has been deleted.
Example

command:
