lpsched(1M)                                           lpsched(1M)



NAME
     lpsched, lpshut, lpmove - start/stop the LP request
     scheduler and move requests

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

DESCRIPTION
     lpsched schedules requests taken by lp(1) for printing on
     line printers.

     Lpshut shuts down the line printer scheduler.  All printers
     that are printing at the time lpshut is invoked will stop
     printing.  Requests that were printing at the time a printer
     was shut down will be reprinted in their entirety after
     lpsched is started again.  All LP commands perform their
     functions even when lpsched is not running.

     Lpmove moves requests that were queued by lp(1) between LP
     destinations.  This command may be used only when lpsched is
     not running.

     The first form of the command moves the named requests to
     the LP destination, dest.  Requests are request ids as
     returned by lp(1).  The second form moves all requests for
     destination dest1 to destination dest2.  As a side effect,
     lp(1) will reject requests for dest1.

     Note that lpmove never checks the acceptance status (see
     accept(1M)) for the new destination when moving requests.

SECURITY FEATURES
     On systems running CX/SX configured to B1 security, lpsched
     will verify that the printer device is cleared for each
     request.

FILES
     /usr/spool/lp/*

SEE ALSO
     accept(1M), enable(1), lp(1), lpadmin(1M), lpstat(1).

BUGS
     Lpmove does not work on remote printers.
