cancel a remote print job using rembak, not working

Question:

I'm trying to cancel a remote print job using rembak, and I
can't get it to work.

Xferred to Tim

Response:

Environment:  rs/6000-----tcp/ip----pc------printer
Description:  You can't cancel remote print jobs, using rembak -S host -P queue
        -x -\#jobid.
Action: I verified the syntax of the command.
        I Asked you if the lpd daemon was running on the pc.
        You said that you were unsure.
        I ran the iptrace command to take a look at the communication
        between the two systems, to verify it was running.
Next Action:  You will fax me a copy of the output. 

Response:

Next Action:  NILVM;  I suggested to you that you try and use the -u username
        along with the -x -\#jobid in the command.  I was able to reproduce the
        same affects in the lab and this solved the problem.
        The iptrace showed two spaces ( 2020 in hex )  after reviewing the
        "IAB Official Protocol Standards" there is supposed to be a agent 
        inbetween the two.  ( Agent meaning the name of the user who submitted
        the job request ).

rembak -S host -P queue -x -\#jobid -u user@localhost
