How to let CUPS printer clean up print jobs in the queue after it finished printing out all jobs.

in Linux Operating System (MOSC)
 The configuration parameter "PreserveJobHistory" can be used to specify whether or not to preserve the job history after they are printed. For this case, please set the 'PreserveJobHistory' to "NO" in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. It's enabled by default on EL 5. E.g:
# grep PreserveJobHistory /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
PreserveJobHistory No

To take effect, please restart cups daemon(#/etc/init.d/cups restart) or reboot the machine. I verified on my test environment it works fine.

Howdy, Stranger!
