NAME
accept/reject - accept/reject jobs sent to a destination
SYNOPSIS
accept [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -h hostname[:port] ]
destination(s)
reject [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -h hostname[:port] ] [ -r
reason ] destination(s)
DESCRIPTION
accept instructs the printing system to accept print jobs to
the specified destinations.
reject 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 accept and
reject:
-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 rejecting jobs.
COMPATIBILITY
Unlike the System V printing system, CUPS allows printer
names to contain 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 confi-
guration. This differs from the System V versions which
require the root user to execute these commands.
