     LPSCHED(C)               XENIX System V                LPSCHED(C)



     Name
          lpsched, lpshut, lpmove - Starts/stops the lineprinter
          request scheduler and moves requests.

     Syntax
          /usr/lib/lpsched
          /usr/lib/lpshut
          /usr/lib/lpmove requests destinations
          /usr/lib/lpmove dest1 dest2

     Description
          lpsched schedules requests taken by lp(C) for printing on
          lineprinters.

          lpshut shuts down the lineprinter 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 lineprinter commands perform
          their functions even when lpsched is not running.

          lpmove moves requests that were queued by lp(C) between
          lineprinter destinations.  This command may be used only
          when lpsched is not running.  The first form of the command
          moves the named requests to the lineprinter destinations,
          dest.  Requests are request IDs as returned by lp(C).  The
          second form moves all requests for destination dest1 to
          destination dest2.  As a side effect, lp(C) will reject
          requests for dest1.

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