lpmove --
move print requests
Synopsis
lpmove requests dest
lpmove dest1 dest2
Description
lpmove moves requests that were queued by lp
between LP destinations.
The first form of the lpmove command shown above
(under ``Synopsis'') moves the named
requests
to the LP destination dest.
Requests are request-IDs
as returned by lp.
The second form of the lpmove command
attempts to move all requests for destination
dest1
to destination
dest2;
lp then rejects any new requests for
dest1.
Note that when moving requests,
lpmove never checks the acceptance status
(see
accept(1M))
of the new destination.
Also, the request-IDs of the moved requests
are not changed,
so users can still find their requests.
The lpmove command
does not move requests that have options
(such as content type and form required)
that cannot be handled by the new destination.
If a request was originally queued for a
class or the special destination any,
and the first form of lpmove was used,
the destination of the request is changed
to new-destination.
A request thus affected is printable
only on new-destination and not on other
members of the class or other acceptable printers
if the original destination was any.
