SYNOPSIS
     cancel [printer]

     cancel [id]...

ARGUMENTS
     id   Specifies the request identification number that you
          want to delete.  The id is part of the message returned
          by lp when you spool a print job, such as laser-1233.

     printer
          Specifies a particular printer that is currently
          printing the job you want to stop.  To display a
          complete list of printers, use lpstat(1).

DESCRIPTION
     cancel deletes jobs from the print queue.  Jobs are placed
     in the print queue by means of lp (see lp(1)).

     When you cancel a request that is currently printing, you
     free the printer to print its next available request.
