Printing

NOTE: Print data which consists of multiple files sent in one print instruction cannot be deleted file by file. All the files will be deleted together.

NOTE: This command is invalid if no options are specified, or if there is no print data which matches the option.

NOTE: You can only delete print data from the same workstation used to send the print data. You cannot delete print data sent by other workstations.

NOTE: When a command to delete print data is received, the file will be deleted even if it is in the process of being printed. Any unprinted data will be cancelled after the file has been deleted.

Example

To delete the print data from printer fxPS for job number 27, enter the following command.

%cancel fxPS-27

To delete all the print data from printer fxPS, enter the following command.

%cancel fxPS -e
