lpusers(1M)                    DG/UX R4.11MU05                   lpusers(1M)


NAME
       lpusers - set printing queue priorities

SYNOPSIS
       lpusers -d priority-level
       lpusers -q priority-level -u login-ID-list
       lpusers -u login-ID-list
       lpusers -q priority-level
       lpusers -l

DESCRIPTION
       The lpusers command is used to set limits to the queue priority level
       that can be assigned to jobs submitted by users of the LP print
       service.

       You must have appropriate privilege to run lpusers. On a generic
       DG/UX system (i.e. without a DG/UX information security option),
       appropriate privilege is granted by having an effective UID of 0
       (root). See the appropriateprivilege(5) man page for more
       information.

       On a system with DG/UX information security, appropriate privilege is
       granted by having one or more specific capabilities enabled in the
       effective capability set of the user. See capdefaults(5) man page
       for the default capabilities of this command.

       The first form of the command (with -d) sets the system-wide priority
       default to priority-level, where priority-level is a value of 0 to
       39, with 0 being the highest priority.  If a user does not specify a
       priority level with a print request [see lp(1)], the default priority
       is used.  Initially, the default priority level is 20.

       The second form of the command (with -q and -u) sets the default
       highest priority-level (0-39) that the users in login-ID-list can
       request when submitting a print request.  The login-ID-list argument
       may include any or all of the following constructs:

        login-ID    A user on any system

        systemname!login-ID
                    A user on the system systemname

        systemname!all
                    All users on system systemname

        all!login-ID
                    A user on all systems

        all         All users on all systems

       Users that have been given a limit cannot submit a print request with
       a higher priority level than the one assigned, nor can they change a
       request already submitted to have a higher priority.  Any print
       requests submitted with priority levels higher than allowed will be
       given the highest priority allowed.

       The third form of the command (with -u) removes any explicit priority
       level for the specified users.  User names must be specific.  all is
       not acceptable.

       The fourth form of the command (with -q) sets the default highest
       priority level for all users not explicitly covered by the use of the
       second form of this command.

       The last form of the command (with -l) lists the default priority
       level and the priority limits assigned to users.

NOTES
       The lp subsystem supports running with multiple lp schedulers.  When
       more than one lpsched is defined, each scheduler will appear as an
       independent spooler with it's own set of printer queues, lp forms,
       classes and user definitions.  The lpusers command can operate with
       only one lpsched at a time.  To "target" a specific lpsched, the
       environment variable DGLPSCHED should be set to the desired lpsched
       name before executing the lpusers command.  If the DGLPSCHED
       variable is unset, then the default lpsched will be targeted.  The
       currently defined lpscheds can be listed with the admlpsched -o list
       command.
