OUTPUTS
This cmdlet produces no output.
Example 1: Suspend a specific print job
PS C:\\> Suspend-PrintJob -PrinterName "PrinterName" -ID 1
This command suspends the print job that has an ID of 1 on the printer named PrinterName.
Example 2: Suspend a print job using a printer object and print job ID
PS C:\\>$Printer = Get-Printer -Name "PrinterName"

The first command gets a printer named PrinterName by using the Get-Printer cmdlet. The command stores the result in the $Printer variable.
The second command suspends the print job that an ID of 1 on the printer stored in $Printer.
Example 3: Suspend a print job using a print job object
PS C:\\>$PrintJob = Get-PrintJob -PrinterName "PrinterName" -ID 1
PS C:\\> Suspend-PrintJob -InputObject $printJob
The first command gets a print job that has the ID 1 on the printer named PrinterName by using the Get-PrintJob. The command stores the result in the
