accept(1M)




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.

     accept and  reject must be run on  the  print  server;  they
     have no meaning to a client system.


OPTIONS

     The following options are supported  for reject:

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


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.    See
           printers.conf(4) for information regarding the  naming
           conventions for  atomic names.


EXIT STATUS

     The following exit values are returned:

     0     Successful completion.

     non-zero

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.
