lpsched(1M)      SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION COMMANDS       lpsched(1M)



NAME
     lpsched, lpshut, lpmove - start/stop the  LP  print  service
     and move requests

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/lib/lp/lpsched
     lpshut
     lpmove requests dest
     lpmove $dest sub 1$ $dest sub 2$

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 des-
     tinations.  The first form of the lpmove command shown above
     (under SYNOPSIS) moves the named requests to the LP destina-
     tion dest.  Requests are request-IDs as returned by lp.  The
     second form of the lpmove command will attempt to  move  all
     requests  for  destination $dest sub 1$ to destination $dest
     sub 2$; lp will then reject any new requests for  $dest  sub
     1$.

     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  spe-
     cial 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.

     If a request was originally queued for a class or  the  spe-
     cial destination any, and the first form of lpmove was used,
     the request will not be changed and it will remain queued.
