DESCRIPTION

14       The  lpsched command  starts or restarts the  LP print service.
15
16
17       The   lpshut  command  stops  the  LP print service.  Printers that are
18       restarted using lpsched reprint (in their entirety) print requests that
19       were stopped by  lpshut. See  lpshut(1M).
20
21
22       It  is  recommended that you start  and stop the LP print service using
23       svcadm(1M).  See NOTES.

OPTIONS

26       The following options are supported:
27
28       -f num_filters      Specifies the number  of  concurrent  slow  filters
29                           that  may be run on a print server. A default value
30                           of 1 is used if none  is  specified.  Depending  on
31                           server  configuration,  a  value  of   1  may cause
32                           printers to remain idle while there are jobs queued
33                           to them.
34
35
36       -n num_notifiers    Specifies  the  number  of  concurrent notification
37                           processes that can run on a print server. A default
38                           value of  1 is used when none is specified.
39
40
41       -p fd_limit         Specifies  the  file  descriptor resource limit for
42                           the  lpsched process. A default value of   4096  is
43                           used  if  none is specified. On extremely large and
44                           active  print  servers,  it  may  be  necessary  to
45                           increase this value.
46
47
48       -r reserved_fds     Specifies  the  number of file descriptors that the
49                           scheduler  reserves  for  internal   communications
50                           under  heavy  load.  A  default value of  2 is used
51                           when none is specified. It should not be  necessary
52                           to  modify  this  value  unless instructed to do so
53                           when troubleshooting problems under high load.
