Description

lpsched allows you to start the LP print service.

lpshut shuts down the print service. All printers that are printing at the time lpshut is invoked will stop printing. When lpsched is started again, requests that were printing at the time a printer was shut down will be reprinted from the beginning.

You must have the appropriate privilege to run these commands.

Notices

If the scheduler fails to run, check the lpsched log file which contains all failed attempts to load print requests, printer descriptions, forms, filters, classes, alerts, and systems. The log files are located in /var/lp/logs. Useful information on the networked print service can also be found in the log file /var/lp/logs/lpNet.
