>Description:
man lprm displays the use as follows:
NAME
lprm - remove jobs from the line printer spooling queue
SYNOPSIS
lprm [-Pprinter] [-] [job # ...] [user ...]
lprm -Plsjd1p2 (none of the above work at all)
spxdev:root# lprm -Plsjd1p2
(LPD Server):
Cancel Function Not Supported
spxdev:root# lprm -
(LPD Server):
Cancel Function Not Supported
spxdev:root# lprm 13
(LPD Server):
Cancel Function Not Supported
spxdev:root# lprm peter
(LPD Server):
Cancel Function Not Supported
spxdev:root#
Now, it does work if (and only if) I enter the following:
lprm -Plsjd1p2 13
spxdev:root# lprm -Plsjd1p2 13
dfA013spxdev.servplex.com dequeued
cfA013spxdev.servplex.com dequeued
(LPD Server):
Cancel Function Not Supported
spxdev:root#
It does actually remove the print job but still gives the Cancel
Function Not Supported message...
>How-To-Repeat:
turn off your printer and send a print job.
then type lprm job# or lprm username
(just as described in man page) and see the results.
