Canceling a Print Request by ID Number

To cancel a print request, type the following command.

$ cancel request_id

In the previous example, request_id is the request id number of the desired print request.

A message informs you that the request is cancelled. The next job in the queue begins printing.

In the following example two print requests are canceled.

$ cancel jetprint-6 fastprint-5
jetprint-6: cancelled
fastprint-5: cancelled
