lprm
will remove a job, or jobs, from a printer's spool
queue. Since the spooling directory is protected from users, using
lprm
is normally the only method by which a user may
remove a job. The owner of a job is determined by the user's login name and
host name on the machine where the
lpr(1) command was invoked.
Options and arguments:
-P
printer-w
maxwait-

lprm
will remove all jobs which a user owns. If
the super-user employs this flag, the spool queue will be emptied
entirely.lprm
to attempt to remove any jobs queued
belonging to that user (or users). This form of invoking
lprm
is useful only to the super-user.% lpq -l 1st:ken [job #013ucbarpa] (standard input) 100 bytes % lprm 13
If neither arguments or options are given,
lprm
will delete the currently active job if it is
owned by the user who invoked lprm
.
lprm
announces the names of any files it
removes and is silent if there are no jobs in the queue which match the
request list.
lprm
will kill off an active daemon, if
necessary, before removing any spooling files. If a daemon is killed, a new
one is automatically restarted upon completion of file removals.
