Description
The Restart-PrintJob cmdlet restarts a print job on the specified printer.
You can specify the print job to restart by specifying the PrinterName and ID parameters, by specifying printer object and job ID parameter, or by specifying the job object as an input.

Examples
Example 1: Restart a selected print job
PS C:\> Restart-PrintJob -PrinterName "PrinterName" -ID 1
This command restarts the print job that has an ID of 1 on the printer named PrinterName.
Example 2: Restart a print job by using printer object and the print job ID
PS C:\>$Printer = Get-Printer -PrinterName "PrinterName"
PS C:\> Restart-PrintJob -PrinterObject $Printer -ID 1
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 restarts the print job that has the ID 1 on the printer in $Printer.
Example 3: Restart print job using job object
PS C:\>$PrintJob = Get-PrintJob -PrinterName "PrinterName" -ID 1
PS C:\> Restart-PrintJob -InputObject $PrintJob
The first command gets a printer job that has the ID on a printer named PrinterName by using the Get-PrintJob cmdlet. The command stores the result in the $PrintJob variable.
The second command restarts the print job in $PrintJob.
