The following options are recognized by cancel:
−a |
Cancel all jobs on the named destination, or all jobs on all destinations if none is provided. |

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.
Cancel the current print job:
cancel
Cancel job "myprinter-42":
cancel myprinter−42
Cancel all jobs:

Administrators wishing to prevent unauthorized cancellation of jobs via the −u option should require authentication for Cancel-Jobs operations in cupsd.conf(5).
