To remove jobs from the queue:
NOTE:
•
Unless you log in as the root user, you can remove only your own jobs.
On a system running SunOS 4.1.x or another BSD-based
variant, use the lprm command to remove jobs from the queue
as follows.
lprm -P queuename jobnumber
You can use the lpq command to check the job number.
For example, to remove job number 123 from the Print queue of your
KX-P8420 named KXP8420, type:
lprm -P KXP8420 123
The lprm command reports the names of any files it removes.
On a system running Solaris 2.x or any System V
implementation of UNIX, use the cancel command to remove
jobs from the queue.
cancel queuename - jobnumber
For example, to remove job number 123 from the Print queue of your
KX-P8420 named KXP8420, type:
cancel KXP8420-123
