ef416fc2 | 52 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
6e12033b MS |
53 | \fBlpoptions\fR displays or sets printer options and defaults. |
54 | If no printer is specified using the \fI\-p\fR option, the default printer is used as described in | |
55 | .BR lp (1). | |
56 | .LP | |
57 | If no \fI\-l\fR, \fI\-o\fR, or \fI\-r\fR options are specified, the current options are reported on the standard output. | |
58 | .LP | |
59 | Options set with the \fBlpoptions\fR command are used by the | |
60 | .BR lp (1) | |
61 | and | |
62 | .BR lpr (1) | |
63 | commands when submitting jobs. | |
64 | .LP | |
65 | When run by the root user, \fBlpoptions\fR gets and sets default options and instances for all users in the \fI/etc/cups/lpoptions\fR file. | |
66 | Otherwise, the per-user defaults are managed in the \fI~/.cups/lpoptions\fR file. | |
67 | .SH OPTIONS | |
