What is the make/model of the printer?
Does your printer have an offline button?
There are several different printer command languages and without knowing any technical information it is impossible to provide any help or if such a command exists for your printer.
In my case I have several HP laserjet 4s which use the printer control language PCL. It does have a reset command but I have never bothered to write a program since pressing the offline button is quicker. Once the printer is offline I can reset the unit via its control panel.
Edit:
The problem with deleting print jobs is that once several pages are already sent to the printer the spooler no longer has control. The printer will continue spitting out pages until its memory is empty.
