.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBlp\fR submits files for printing or alters a pending job.
.LP
\fBcancel\fR cancels existing print jobs. The \fI-a\fR option will remove
all jobs from the specified destination.
.SH OPTIONS
The following options are recognized by \fBlp\fR:
.TP 5
\-E
.br
Forces encryption when connecting to the server.
.TP 5
\-d \fIdestination\fR
.br
Prints files to the named printer.
.TP 5
\-h \fIhostname\fR
.br
Specifies the print server hostname. The default is "localhost" or the value
of the CUPS_SERVER environment variable.
.TP 5
\-i \fIjob-id\fR
.br
Specifies an existing job to modify.
.TP 5
\-m
.br
Send email when the job is completed (not supported CUPS 1.1.)
.TP 5
\-n \fIcopies\fR
.br
Sets the number of copies to print from 1 to 100.
.TP 5
\-o \fIoption\fR
.br
Sets a job option.
.TP 5
\-q \fIpriority\fR
.br
Sets the job priority from 1 (lowest) to 100 (highest). The
default priority is 50.
.TP 5
\-s
.br
Do not report the resulting job IDs (silent mode.)
.TP 5
\-t \fIname\fR
.br
Sets the job name.
.TP 5
\-H \fIhandling\fR
.br
Specifies when the job should be printed. A value of
\fIimmediate\fR will print the file immediately, a value of
\fIhold\fR will hold the job indefinitely, and a time value
(HH:MM) will hold the job until the specified time. Use a value
of \fIresume\fR with the \fI-i\fR option to resume a held job.
.TP 5
\-P \fIpage-list\fR
.br
Specifies which pages to print in the document. The list can contain a
list of numbers and ranges (#-#) separated by commas (e.g. 1,3-5,16).
.SH COMPATIBILITY
Unlike the System V printing system, CUPS allows printer names to contain
any printable character except SPACE and TAB. Also, printer and class names are
\fBnot\fR case-sensitive. 
.LP
The "m" option is not functional in CUPS 1.1.
.LP
The "q" option accepts a different range of values than the
Solaris lp command, matching the IPP job priority values (1-100)
instead of the Solaris values (0-39).
