How do I cancel a print job?

Where is the cancel printing command?

Forget it. I found it in Windows Settings. I expected the Lightroom Print Module to have such a command

Correct answer Abambo

Cancelling a print job that has been submitted to the queue can't be cancelled by an application. Even if only partially sent to the queue, because the user cancels, that part will be printed.

I second Abambo's feedback, from my experience whatever application your in sends the print job to the printer software which handles the whole printing process. If multiple jobs are sent they all get queued. If you wanted to stop one, it is usually a matter of opening the printing software, finding the job you want to cancel, and cancelling it in time - usually with a right click cancel or similar option in the printing software interface. If its just a single print job the process happens pretty quick and it may be difficult to cancel in time so you may end up with half of a printed page.
