Another way is to use the "enq" command (which is the real workhorse behind all the line printer commands):
enq -X -P wlprint
>From the enq manpage...
Cancel Options
-X Cancels the printing of your jobs. If you have root user authority, all jobs on the specified queue are deleted. This flag is only valid on local print jobs.
-x Number Cancels the printing of the specified job Number.
-P Printer Specifies the Printer where either all jobs or the selected job number is to be canceled.
