20 | <i>lpc</i> provides limited control over printer and class queues | |
21 | provided by CUPS. It can also be used to query the state of | |
22 | queues. | |
23 | <p>If no command is specified on the command-line, lpc will | |
24 | display a prompt and accept commands from the standard input. | |
25 | <h2 class="title"><a name="COMMANDS">Commands</a></h2> | |
26 | The <i>lpc</i> program accepts a subset of commands accepted by | |
27 | the Berkeley <i>lpc</i> program of the same name: | |

43 | <h2 class="title"><a name="LIMITATIONS">Limitations</a></h2> |
44 | Since <i>lpc</i> is geared towards the Berkeley printing system, | |
45 | it is impossible to use <i>lpc</i> to configure printer or class | |
46 | queues provided by CUPS. To configure printer or class queues | |
c277f98c | 47 | you must use the <i>lpadmin(8)</i> command or another |
94436c5a MS |
48 | CUPS-compatible client with that functionality. |
49 | <h2 class="title"><a name="COMPATIBILITY">Compatibility</a></h2> | |
50 | The CUPS version of <i>lpc</i> does not implement all of the | |
51 | standard Berkeley or LPRng commands. | |
