Reset Print Queue
Script Type: Shell
Occasionally a job in the print queue will get stuck and nothing will print until it's either deleted or fixed. Print jobs will pile up behind it and memory as well as drive space start getting eaten up.
The easiest way to fix this situation is by resetting the print queue. When this Automated Task is executed, the script resets the print queue on the device.
In versions of MacOS prior to Catalina (10.15) this requires the GUI.
