NAME

6       accept/reject - accept/reject jobs sent to a destination
7

SYNOPSIS

9       accept [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -h hostname[:port] ] destination(s)
10       reject [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -h hostname[:port] ] [ -r reason ] des‐
11       tination(s)
12

DESCRIPTION

14       accept instructs the printing system to accept print jobs to the speci‐
15       fied destinations.
16
17       reject instructs the printing system to reject print jobs to the speci‐
18       fied destinations. The -r option sets the reason  for  rejecting  print
19       jobs. If not specified the reason defaults to "Reason Unknown".
20

OPTIONS

22       The following options are supported by both accept and reject:
23
24       -E
25            Forces encryption when connecting to the server.
26
27       -U username
28            Sets the username that is sent when connecting to the server.
29
30       -h hostname[:port]
31            Chooses an alternate server.
32
33       -r "reason"
34            Sets the reason string that is shown for a printer that is reject‐
35            ing jobs.
36

COMPATIBILITY

38       Unlike the System V printing system, CUPS allows printer names to  con‐
39       tain  any  printable  character  except SPACE, TAB, "/", or "#".  Also,
40       printer and class names are not case-sensitive.
41
42       The CUPS versions of accept and reject may ask the user for  an  access
43       password  depending  on the printing system configuration. This differs
44       from the System V versions which require the root user to execute these
45       commands.
