Canceling Stuck Jobs

If a job gets stuck due to an error on the printing device, the user can still log off. The stuck job will prevent another user from logging in and will automatically finish after the error is removed. However, this may lead to security issues.

If the Keep printing after logging out setting on the Printers & Terminals settings tab is disabled, all jobs will be canceled after logging out.

There are two ways to cancel stuck jobs:

  1. Canceling the jobs as the user who started the printing.

  2. Canceling the jobs as the administrator.

Canceling the jobs as the user who started the printing

To cancel stuck jobs as a user:

  • Log in to the terminal.

  • Tap the Unlock Panel terminal action.

  • Select the stuck job, and tap Cancel.
