Cancel (lprm Command)
This section explains how to cancel a print job submitted from the network.
Format
-P<Logical Printer Name>
Specify a logical printer name immediately after the P (with no space) to cancel a
print job that is being processed by the specified printer. If no logical printer
name is specified, the print job being processed by logical printer lp is canceled.
(e.g. lprm -P oklahoma for 6050A).
<Job ID> Specify the job ID of the job to be canceled. The status display command
[lpq] displays job IDs. If this is omitted, all print jobs are canceled.
Examples of use

[124].
Job IDs on the Xerox 6030/6050 Wide Format side and the client side are
allocated separately.
