SYNOPSIS
       lp  [  -E  ]  [	-c ] [ -d destination ] [ -h server ] [ -m ] [ -n num-
       copies [ -o option ] [ -q priority ] [ -s ] [ -t title ] [ -H  handling
       ] [ -P page-list ] [ file(s) ]
       lp  [  -E  ]  [	-c  ] [ -h server ] [ -i job-id ] [ -n num-copies [ -o
       option ] [ -q priority ] [ -t title ] [ -H handling ] [ -P page-list ]
       cancel [ -a ] [ -h server ] [ -u username ] [ id ] [  destination  ]  [
       destination-id ]

DESCRIPTION
       lp  submits  files for printing or alters a pending job. Use a filename
       of "-" to force printing from the standard input.

       cancel cancels existing print jobs. The -a option will remove all  jobs
       from the specified destination.

OPTIONS
       The following options are recognized by lp:

       -E
	    Forces encryption when connecting to the server.

       -c
	    This  option is provided for backwards-compatibility only. On sys‐
	    tems that support it, this option forces  the  print  file	to  be
	    copied  to	the  spool  directory  before printing. In CUPS, print
	    files are always sent to the scheduler via IPP which has the  same
	    effect.

       -d destination
	    Prints files to the named printer.

       -h hostname
	    Specifies the print server hostname. The default is "localhost" or
	    the value of the CUPS_SERVER environment variable.

       -i job-id
	    Specifies an existing job to modify.

       -m
	    Send email when the job is completed (not supported CUPS 1.1.)

       -n copies
	    Sets the number of copies to print from 1 to 100.

       -o option
	    Sets a job option.

       -q priority
	    Sets the job priority  from	 1  (lowest)  to  100  (highest).  The
	    default priority is 50.

       -s
	    Do not report the resulting job IDs (silent mode.)

       -t name
	    Sets the job name.

       -u username
	    Cancels jobs owned by username.

       -H handling
	    Specifies  when  the  job  should be printed. A value of immediate
	    will print the file immediately, a value of hold will hold the job
	    indefinitely, and a time value (HH:MM) will hold the job until the
	    specified time. Use a value of resume with the -i option to resume
	    a  held job.  Use a value of restart with the -i option to restart
	    a completed job.

       -P page-list
	    Specifies which pages to print in the document. The list can  con‐
	    tain  a list of numbers and ranges (#-#) separated by commas (e.g.
	    1,3-5,16).

COMPATIBILITY
       Unlike the System V printing system, CUPS allows printer names to  con‐
       tain  any  printable  character except SPACE and TAB. Also, printer and
       class names are not case-sensitive.

       The "m" option is not functional in CUPS 1.1.

       The "q" option accepts a different range of values than the Solaris  lp
       command,	 matching  the	IPP job priority values (1-100) instead of the
       Solaris values (0-39).

NOTES
       Administrators wishing to prevent unauthorized cancellation of jobs via
       the   -u	  option   should   password-protect  the  /jobs  location  in
       cupsd.conf(5).
