NAME

       accept, reject - accept or reject print requests

SYNOPSIS

       accept destination...

       reject [-r reason] destination...

DESCRIPTION

       accept allows the queueing of print requests for the named destinations.

       reject prevents queueing of print requests for the named destinations.

       Use lpstat -a to check if destinations are accepting or rejecting print requests.

       Generally,  accept  and	reject are run on the print server to control local print queues. Under some configurations, accept and reject are
       run on client systems when IPP is being used to communicate between client and server.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported for reject:

       -r reason    Assigns a reason for rejection of print requests for destination.

		    reason is reported by lpstat -a. By default, reason is unknown reason for existing destinations, and new printer for  destina-
		    tions added to the system but not yet accepting requests. Enclose reason in quotes if it contains blanks.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       destination    The  name  of the destination accepting or rejecting print requests. Destination specifies the name of a printer or class of
		      printers (see lpadmin(1M)). Specify destination using  atomic  name  or  URI-style  (scheme://endpoint)  names.  See  print-
		      ers.conf(4) for information regarding the naming conventions for destinations.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	   Successful completion.

       non-zero    An error occurred.

FILES

       /etc/printers.conf      System printer configuration database

       $HOME/.printers	       User-configurable printer database

       ou=printers	       LDAP version of /etc/printers.conf

       printers.conf.byname    NIS version of /etc/printers.conf

       printers.org_dir        NIS+ version of /etc/printers.conf

ATTRIBUTES

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

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

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |Interface Stability	     |Obsolete			   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+

SEE ALSO

       enable(1), lp(1), lpstat(1), lpadmin(1M), lpsched(1M), printers.conf(4), attributes(5)

NOTES

       accept  and  reject  affect  only  queueing  on the print server's spooling system. Requests made from a client system remain queued in the
       client system's queueing mechanism until they are cancelled or accepted by the print server's spooling system.

       accept is CSI-enabled except for the destination name.

       When IPP is in use, the user is prompted for a passphrase if the remote print service is configured to require authentication.
