NAME

       accept, reject - allow/prevent LP destination queuing requests

SYNOPSIS

       destination ...

       destination ... destination ...] ...

DESCRIPTION

       The command permits the command (see lp(1)) to accept printing requests for each named LP printer or printer class destination queue.

       The  command causes the command to reject subsequent printing requests for each named destination queue.  Requests already queued will con-
       tinue to be processed for printing by the scheduler (see lpsched(1M)).

       Use the command (see lpstat(1)) to find the status of destination queues.

       For an overview of LP command interactions, see lp(1).

   Options
       The command can have the following option.

	      Specifies a string that is used to explain why the
			     command is not accepting requests for a destination.  reason applies to all queues mentioned up to the  next  option.
			     If  reason  or  is  omitted,  the default reason is "".  The maximum length of reason is 80 bytes.  reason message of
			     length greater than 80 bytes is truncated to 80 bytes.

			     reason is reported by the command and by the command when users direct requests to a rejected destination.

EXTERNAL INFLUENCES

   Environment Variables
       The variable determines the language in which messages are displayed.  If is not specified or is set to the empty string,  it  defaults	to
       "C" (see lang(5)).

   International Code Set Support
       Single- and multibyte character code sets are supported.

EXAMPLES

       These examples assume you have a system with two printers named and and one class named that includes both printers.

   Example 1
       To allow all destinations to accept print requests:

   Example 2
       To reject requests to the class destination, requiring users to choose a printer:

   Example 3
       To reject requests to the individual printer destinations, requiring all requests to go through the class destination:
