Here’s an example:

[]How can I delete one of this queued jobs? (from all the different printers queues)
[]How can I delete all of the queued jobs older than 2 months?

This looks promising for you, though it’s a Python script. I"m sure you
could port it to be purely Bash-based, but then again using this may be
much faster:
Hm, I never used a python script but it looks like python is installed on the server. Maybe I’ll give it a try…
Is there no other way to do it? Even if it’s more complicated… For example to clean certain old queues just on one printer.
The time-based part is the area for the Python script, and again you could
create or find something else, but something needs to understand and use
times. In the script’s case, Python reads stuff, understands time,
understands user desires, and applies the commands appropriately via the
usual system commands. If lprm has an option to understand times in some
way, that’d be neat too, but I do not know that it does, and the manpage
does not seem to hint much at that. Nothing about lpq or cancel seem to
indicate understanding there either.

Good luck.

I googled it by my self but I misunderstood the command lpq -PChDbsl20lb001. I didn’t realize that “P” is part of the parameter (even even though this should be clear because of the -)
After reading the page above, everything was clear - thanks!

Yes, you’re right. I think I’ll go with the script.
