lpmove(1M)						  System Administration Commands						lpmove(1M)

NAME

       lpmove - move print requests

SYNOPSIS

       lpmove [request-ID] destination

       lpmove destination1 destination2

DESCRIPTION

       The lpmove command moves print requests queued by lp(1) or lpr(1B) between destinations.

       The first form of lpmove moves specific print requests (request-ID) to a specific destination.

       The  second form of the lpmove command moves all print requests from one destination (destination1) to another (destination2). This form of
       lpmove also rejects new print requests for destination1.

       lpmove moves individual requests or entire queues only between local printers or between remote printers, not between a local and a  remote
       printer. You can move only requests that were not previously transferred to the server.

       When  moving  requests,	lpmove	does  not  check the acceptance status of the destination to which the print requests are being moved (see
       accept(1M)). lpmove does not move requests that have options (for example, content type or requiring a special form) that cannot be handled
       by the new destination.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       request-ID      The specific print request to be moved. Specify request-ID as the identifier associated with a print request as reported by
		       lpstat. See lpstat(1).

       destination     The name of the printer or class of printers (see lpadmin(1M)) to which lpmove moves a  specified  print  request.  Specify
		       destination using atomic, POSIX-style (server:destination) syntax.

       destination1    The  name  of  the  destination	from  which lpmove moves all print requests. Specify destination using atomic, POSIX-style
		       (server:destination) syntax.

       destination2    The name of the destination to which lpmove moves  all  print  requests.  Specify  destination  using  atomic,  POSIX-style
		       (server:destination) syntax.

       See printers.conf(4) for information regarding the naming conventions for atomic names and standards(5) for information regarding POSIX.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	       Successful completion.

       non-zero        An error occurred.

FILES

       /var/spool/print/*      LP print queue.

ATTRIBUTES

       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |      ATTRIBUTE TYPE	     |	    ATTRIBUTE VALUE	   |
