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
cupsaccept instructs the printing system to accept print jobs to the
specified destinations.
cupsreject 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 reject‐
ing jobs.
COMPATIBILITY
Unlike the System V printing system, CUPS allows printer names to con‐
tain any printable character except SPACE, TAB, "/", or "#". Also,
printer and class names are not case-sensitive.
The CUPS versions of accept and reject may ask the user for an access
password depending on the printing system configuration. This differs
from the System V versions which require the root user to execute these
commands.
