Try ending the print writer (*IMMED if necessary) then CALL QSPFIXUP.

Happy Friday, Everyone!

Has anyone ever seen a print job that is "stuck" in a printer even when the
print writer is ended and the device varied off? We have three printers in
our facilities that have multiple print jobs in various states (WTR, PND,
PRT) that we cannot seem to clear. The really strange thing is that they
are intermixed within the jobs (ie: the first job says PRT, followed by a
series of WTR, then it goes back to PRT with a few more WTRs, followed by
PND and a few more PRTs).

Anyone have any idea on how to clear out these naughty jobs? Ending the
print writer and varying off the printer and trying to do a "4" (delete) on
the print job results in the error "File <filename> number <number> not held
or deleted."

I tried to clear out the queue as well, but only a few select jobs were
deleted. I also tried an ENDJOB on the difficult ones, but they still
remain.

Anyone know of an easy way to completely kill all jobs in the printer queue
and clean it out instead of doing it job by job?
