Hi Guys
I have over 2000+ print jobs in one queue which I would like to delete. Is there away in AIX 4.3 that I can delete the whole print jobs at ocne. Instead of one at a time.

Thanks

Never done this on AIX, but here's one that I use:

cancel `lpstat -t | grep <printer_name> | awk '{print $1}'`
