DESCRIPTION

accept allows the queueing of print requests for the named destinations.

reject prevents queueing of print requests for the named destinations.

Use lpstat -a to check if destinations are accepting or rejecting print requests.

accept and request must be run on the print server; they have no meaning on a client system.

OPTIONS

The following options are supported for reject.

-r reason

OPERANDS

destination

The name of the destination accepting or rejecting print requests. Destination specifies the name of a printer or class of printers (see lpadmin(1M)). Specify destination using atomic name. See printers.conf(4) for information regarding the naming conventions for atomic names.

NOTES

accept and reject only effect queuing on the print server's spooling system. Requests made from a client system remain queued in the client system's queuing mechanism until they are cancelled or accepted by the print server's spooling system.

accept is CSI-enabled except for the destinations name.
