SYNOPSIS

10

DESCRIPTION

12       This command starts a label print server.  Normally a server is started
13       automatically as needed, however you can run  the  server  manually  to
14       listen  on  a  public  network  address and/or enable different logging
15       options.
16

OPTIONS

18       The following options are recognized by lprint server:
19
20       -o admin-group=GROUP
21            Specifies that remote configuration is authenticated  against  the
22            named  group.   If not specified or the value "none" is given then
23            any authenticated user may remotely configure lprint.
24
25       -o auth-service=SERVICE
26            Specifies the PAM service to use to authenticate for  remote  con‐
27            figuration  requests.   If  not  specified  or the value "none" is
28            given then printers  can  only  be  added,  modified,  or  deleted
29            locally.
30
31       -o log-file=-
32            Specifies that all messages are written to the standard error.
33
34       -o log-file=syslog
35            Specifies that all messages are sent to the syslog service.
36
37       -o log-file=FILENAME
38            Specifies that all messages are written to the named file.  If the
39            file already exists, messages are appended to it.  The default log
40            file is "$TMPDIR/lprintUID.log".
41
42       -o log-level=error
43            Specifies  that only error messages should be logged.  This is the
44            default.
45
46       -o log-level=info
47            Specifies that error and informational messages should be logged.
48
49       -o log-level=debug
50            Specifies that all messages should be logged.
51
52       -o server-hostname=HOSTNAME
53            Listens for IPP connections on the specified hostname/address(es).
54            If  not  specified,  the  server only listens for connections on a
55            per-user (local) domain socket.
56
57       -o server-port=PORT
58            Listens for IPP connections on the specified port.  If not  speci‐
59            fied, a random port between 9000 and 9999 is chosen.
60
61       -o spool-directory=DIRECTORY
62            Specifies  a  directory  that  holds  pending print files.  If not
63            specified, a subdirectory in the  system  temporary  directory  is
64            used.
