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.
