23 Use lpstat -a to check if destinations are accepting or rejecting print
24 requests.

27 Generally, accept and reject are run on the print server to control
28 local print queues. Under some configurations, accept and reject are
29 run on client systems when IPP is being used to communicate between
30 client and server.
31
33 The following options are supported for reject:
34
35 -r reason Assigns a reason for rejection of print requests for des‐
36 tination.
37
38 reason is reported by lpstat -a. By default, reason is
39 unknown reason for existing destinations, and new printer
40 for destinations added to the system but not yet accepting
41 requests. Enclose reason in quotes if it contains blanks.
42
43
45 The following operands are supported:
46
47 destination The name of the destination accepting or rejecting print
48 requests. Destination specifies the name of a printer or
49 class of printers (see lpadmin(1M)). Specify destination
50 using atomic name or URI-style (scheme://endpoint)
51 names. See printers.conf(4) for information regarding
52 the naming conventions for destinations.

101 accept and reject affect only queueing on the print server's spooling
102 system. Requests made from a client system remain queued in the client
103 system's queueing mechanism until they are cancelled or accepted by the
104 print server's spooling system.
105
106
107 accept is CSI-enabled except for the destination name.
108
109
110 When IPP is in use, the user is prompted for a passphrase if the remote
111 print service is configured to require authentication.
