cupsaccept(8)

NAME

   cupsaccept/cupsreject - accept/reject jobs sent to a destination

SYNOPSIS

   cupsaccept [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -h hostname[:port] ] destination(s)
   cupsreject  [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -h hostname[:port] ] [ -r reason ]
   destination(s)

DESCRIPTION

   The cupsaccept command instructs the printing system  to  accept  print
   jobs to the specified destinations.

   The  cupsreject  command  instructs the printing system to reject print
   jobs to the specified destinations.  The -r option sets the reason  for
   rejecting  print jobs. If not specified, the reason defaults to "Reason
   Unknown".

OPTIONS

   The following options are supported by both cupsaccept and cupsreject:

   -E   Forces encryption when connecting to the server.

   -U username
        Sets the username that is sent when connecting to the server.

   -h hostname[:port]
        Chooses an alternate server.

   -r "reason"
        Sets the reason string  that  is  shown  for  a  printer  that  is
        rejecting jobs.

CONFORMING TO

   The  cupsaccept  and  cupsreject  commands  correspond  to the System V
   printing system commands "accept" and "reject",  respectively.   Unlike
   the  System V printing system, CUPS allows printer names to contain any
   printable character except SPACE, TAB, "/", or "#".  Also, printer  and
   class names are not case-sensitive.

   Finally,  the  CUPS  versions  may  ask the user for an access password
   depending on the printing system configuration.
