Synopsis
/usr/bin
stdin stdout - file -- opt --help --version
The lprm
(line printer remove) command cancels one or more print jobs. Use lpq
to learn the ID of the desired print jobs (say, 61 and 78), then type:
$ lprm -P printername
61 78
If you don’t supply any job IDs, your current print job is canceled. (Only the superuser can cancel other users’ jobs.) The -P
option specifies which print queue contains the job.
