rently printing on that printer, if the request is owned by the user. If the or the option is specified, this option
only specifies the printer on which to perform the corresponding cancel operation.
Remove all requests owned by the user on the specified printer (see

for the specified printer. You can repeat the option to specify more users. The maximum number of users that can be
specified is 50. This form of invoking is useful only to users with appropriate privileges.

ture (see lpadmin(1M)) is enabled for the specified printer, a request belonging to this printer can be canceled only by the system admin-
istrator or the user who requested it.
