NAME
     cancel - cancel jobs

SYNOPSIS
     cancel  [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -a ] [ -h hostname[:port] ]
     [ -u username ] [ id ] [ destination ] [ destination-id ]

DESCRIPTION
     cancel cancels existing  print  jobs.  The  -a  option  will
     remove all jobs from the specified destination.

OPTIONS
     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.

COMPATIBILITY

     names to contain any printable character except SPACE,  TAB,
     "/",  or  "#".   Also, printer and class names are not case-
     sensitive.
