   lpsched(1M)                                                     lpsched(1M)


   NAME
         lpsched, lpshut, lpmove - start/stop the LP print service and move
         requests

   SYNOPSIS
         /usr/lib/lp/lpsched
         lpshut
         lpmove requests dest
         lpmove dest1 dest2

   DESCRIPTION
         lpsched starts the LP print service; this can be done only by root or
         lp.

         lpshut shuts down the print service.  All printers that are printing
         at the time lpshut is invoked will stop printing.  When lpsched is
         started again, requests that were printing at the time a printer was
         shut down will be reprinted from the beginning.

         lpmove moves requests that were queued by lp between LP destinations.
         The first form of the lpmove command shown above (under SYNOPSIS)
         moves the named requests to the LP destination dest.  Requests are
         request-IDs as returned by lp.  The second form of the lpmove command
         will attempt to move all requests for destination dest1 to
         destination dest2; lp will then reject any new requests for dest1.

         Note that when moving requests, lpmove never checks the acceptance
         status [see accept(1M)] of the new destination.  Also, the request-
         IDs of the moved request are not changed, so that users can still
         find their requests.  The lpmove command will not move requests that
         have options (content type, form required, and so on) that cannot be
         handled by the new destination.

         If a request was originally queued for a class or the special
         destination any, and the first form of lpmove was used, the
         destination of the request will be changed to new-destination.  A
         request thus affected will be printable only on new-destination and
         not on other members of the class or other acceptable printers if the
         original destination was any.
