lpmove(1M)                                                lpmove(1M)


       NAME
             lpmove - move print requests

       SYNOPSIS
             lpmove requests dest
             lpmove dest1 dest2

       DESCRIPTION
             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 attempts to move all
             requests for destination dest1 to destination dest2; lp then
             rejects 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 requests are not changed,
             so users can still find their requests.  The lpmove command
             does not move requests that have options (such as content type
             and form required) 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 is changed to new-destination.  A
             request thus affected is printable only on new-destination and
             not on other members of the class or other acceptable printers
             if the original destination was any.
