| lpc - line printer control program (deprecated) |
| <h2 class="title"><a name="SYNOPSIS">Synopsis</a></h2> |
| <b>lpc</b> |
| [ |

| [ |
| <i>parameter(s)</i> |
| ] ] |
| <h2 class="title"><a name="DESCRIPTION">Description</a></h2> |
| <b>lpc</b> provides limited control over printer and class queues provided by CUPS. It can also be used to query the state of queues. |
| <p>If no command is specified on the command-line, <b>lpc</b> displays a prompt and accepts commands from the standard input. |
| <h3><a name="COMMANDS">Commands</a></h3> |
| The <b>lpc</b> program accepts a subset of commands accepted by the Berkeley <b>lpc</b> program of the same name: |
| <dl class="man"> |
| <dt><b>exit</b> |
| <dd style="margin-left: 5.0em">Exits the command interpreter. |
| <dt><b>help </b>[<i>command</i>] |
| <dd style="margin-left: 5.0em"><dt><b>? </b>[<i>command</i>] |
| <dd style="margin-left: 5.0em">Displays a short help message. |
| <dt><b>quit</b> |
| <dd style="margin-left: 5.0em">Exits the command interpreter. |
| <dt><b>status </b>[<i>queue</i>] |
| <dd style="margin-left: 5.0em">Displays the status of one or more printer or class queues. |
| </dl> |
| <h2 class="title"><a name="NOTES">Notes</a></h2> |
| This program is deprecated and will be removed in a future feature release of CUPS. |
| <p>Since <b>lpc</b> is geared towards the Berkeley printing system, it is impossible to use <b>lpc</b> to configure printer or class queues provided by CUPS. |
| To configure printer or class queues you must use the |
| <b>lpadmin</b>(8) |
| command or another CUPS-compatible client with that functionality. |
