Okay, I need to create a batch command that clears a specific printer spool in a multi-printer
environment. Note: "net stop spooler, del windows\system32\spool\printers\*, net start spooler"
won't work because it clears everything.
Situation: I have 27 printers setup running simultaneously generating various label formats. Each
is triggered by a batch event. At the end of each batch event, I want to execute a clear command
for that specific printer without affecting the others.
My thought is if I can bring up a spooled job and select the "Cancel All Documents" for that specific
printer, I should be able to setup a batch command to do it. However, I have not been successful
in defining the "Cancel All Documents" for a specific printer spool.

The spool jobs should be in "C:\Windows\system32\spool\PRINTERS" .. You may want to look in there for the specific spool job, and delete that particular .spl file only (should be able to do it via a batch file as well). The spooler service will probably need to be stopped to be able to delete it though.
I hope this helps.
