Delete all print jobs

[JasmineGreen]

Is there a way to delete all my print jobs at once, rather than one at a time? I see that every print job I have ever done is still on the server. 

Also, is there a way to always delete the job after it is finished?

Thanks. I love Cloud Print, you all do a great job on it.

Every time you successfully print a job, the content of the print job (i.e. the document) gets deleted from our server or if the job is QUEUED or in ERROR state for more than 30days, the content will be deleted at that time. However, the name of your print job, and some other metadata associated with the job (like time it was printed) remains in our server.

We currently don't have any UI that allows you to select multiple print jobs at once for deletion, but you can use our HTTP API to achieve the desired effect. Specifically the /jobs and /deletejob APIs.

Hi,

If you are using a Mac and if you use the "Cloud Printer" app from the Mac App Store (Mac App Store - Cloud Printer - iTunes - Apple), then you may find this useful.

After you login using your Google credentials in the app, you could select the printer from the list on the left side of the window and then select the "Job History" tab to show the history of all jobs sent to the printer. In the content area of the "Job History" tab, you could right click and choose the option "Select all completed jobs". After all completed jobs have been selected, you could right click again in the content area and select "Delete selected print jobs". This would delete all jobs that were selected using the previous step.

Regards,

Somasundaram.

Good to know, Robert, Thanks.

Soma, I do use a Mac, but I have not used the Cloud Printer app. I also have a Nexus 10 that I use Cloud Print with (although for some reason it is usually easier to use my printer's app than Cloud Print)

Thanks for the help with this. I don't really like even having the name of the document and the metadata on the server. I would rather delete it all. It seems like my only option is to remember to delete each job after I print.

Could you be more specific on using the APIS referenced to delete print jobs from Google Cloud Print?

Thanks, Joe C

You use chorme etc you accept that google watches and records your every move, now and forever. This includes your print queue and probably a record of the print contents. You might think that your print history is provided for you but it's not, it's for google and they wont let you delete it. Resistance is futile.
