cancel cancels existing print jobs. The
-a option will remove
all jobs from the specified destination.
The following options are recognized by
cancel:
- -E
- Forces encryption when connecting to the server.
- -U username
- Specifies the username to use when connecting to the server.
- -a
- Cancel all jobs on the named destination, or all jobs on all
destinations if none is provided.
- -h hostname[:port]
- Chooses an alternate server.
- -u username
- Cancels jobs owned by username.
Unlike the System V printing system, CUPS allows printer names to
contain any printable character except SPACE, TAB, "/", or "#".
Also, printer and class names are
not case-sensitive.
Administrators wishing to prevent unauthorized cancellation of
jobs via the
-u option should require authentication for
Cancel-Jobs operations in
cupsd.conf(5).
