NAME
lprm
- remove jobs from the line printer spooling queue
SYNOPSIS
lprm
[-P printer
]
[-
]
[job # ...]
[user ...
]
DESCRIPTION
Lprm
will remove a job, or jobs, from a printer's spool queue.
Since the spooling directory is protected from users, using
lprm
is normally the only method by which a user may remove a job.
The owner of a job is determined by the user's login name
and host name on the machine where the
lpr(1)
command was invoked.
Options and arguments:
-P printer
Specify the queue associated with a specific
printer
(otherwise the default printer is used).
-
If a single
`-
'
is given,
lprm
will remove all jobs which a user
owns. If the super-user employs this flag, the spool queue will
be emptied entirely.
user
Causes
lprm
to attempt to remove any jobs queued belonging to that user
(or users). This form of invoking
lprm
is useful only to the super-user.
job #
A user may dequeue an individual job by specifying its job number.
This number may be obtained from the
lpq(1)
program, e.g.
If neither arguments or options are given,
Lprm
will delete the currently active job if it is
owned by the user who invoked
lprm
Lprm
announces the names of any files it removes and is silent if
there are no jobs in the queue which match the request list.
Lprm
will kill off an active daemon, if necessary, before removing
any spooling files. If a daemon is killed, a new one is
automatically restarted upon completion of file removals.
ENVIRONMENT
If the following environment variable exists, it is utilized by
lprm
PRINTER
If the environment variable
PRINTER
exists,
and a printer has not been specified with the
-P
option,
the default printer is assumed from
PRINTER
FILES
/etc/printcap
Printer characteristics file.
/var/spool/*
Spooling directories.
/var/spool/*/lock
Lock file used to obtain the pid of the current
daemon and the job number of the currently active job.
