LPUSERS(8) Maintenance Commands and Procedures LPUSERS(8)
NAME
lpusers - set printing queue priorities
SYNOPSIS
lpusers -d priority-level lpusers -q priority-level -u login-ID-list lpusers -u login-ID-list lpusers -q priority-level lpusers -lDESCRIPTION
The
lpusers command sets limits to the queue priority level that can
be assigned to jobs submitted by users of the LP print service.
The first form of the command (with
-d) sets the system-wide priority
default to
priority-level, where
priority-level is a value of 0 to
39, with 0 being the highest priority. If a user does not specify a
priority level with a print request (see
lp(1)), the default priority
level is used. Initially, the default priority level is 20.
The second form of the command (with
-q and
-u) sets the default
highest
priority-level (0-39) that the users in
login-ID-list can
request when submitting a print request. The
login-ID-list argument
may include any or all of the following constructs:
login-ID A user on any system
system_name!login-ID A user on the system
system_name system_name!all All users on system
system_name all!login-ID A user on all systems
all All users on all systems
Users that have been given a limit cannot submit a print request with
a higher priority level than the one assigned, nor can they change a
request that has already been submitted to have a higher priority.
Any print requests submitted with priority levels higher than allowed
will be given the highest priority allowed.
The third form of the command (with
-u) removes any explicit
priority level for the specified users.
The fourth form of the command (with
-q) sets the default highest
priority level for all users not explicitly covered by the use of the
second form of this command.
The last form of the command (with
-l) lists the default priority
level and the priority limits assigned to users.
