lpc - line printer control program
lpc [ command
[ parameter(s) ] ]
lpc provides limited control over printer
and class queues provided by CUPS. It can also be used to query the state
of queues.
If no command is specified on the command-line, lpc displays a
prompt and accepts commands from the standard input.
The lpc program
accepts a subset of commands accepted by the Berkeley lpc program of the
same name:
- exit
- Exits the command interpreter.
- help [command]
- ? [command]
- Displays a short help message.
- quit
- Exits the command interpreter.
- status
[queue]
- Displays the status of one or more printer or class queues.
Since
lpc is geared towards the Berkeley printing system, it is impossible to
use lpc to configure printer or class queues provided by CUPS. To configure
printer or class queues you must use the lpadmin(8)
command or another
CUPS-compatible client with that functionality.
