NAME
       cupsaccept/cupsreject - accept/reject jobs sent to a destination

SYNOPSIS
       cupsaccept [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -h hostname[:port] ] destination(s)
       cupsreject [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -h hostname[:port] ] [ -r reason ] destination(s)

DESCRIPTION
       The cupsaccept command instructs the printing system to accept print jobs to the specified destinations.

       The cupsreject command instructs the printing system to reject print jobs to the specified destinations.  The -r option sets
       the reason for rejecting print jobs. If not specified, the reason defaults to "Reason Unknown".

OPTIONS
       The following options are supported by both cupsaccept and cupsreject:

       -E   Forces encryption when connecting to the server.

       -U username
            Sets the username that is sent when connecting to the server.

       -h hostname[:port]
            Chooses an alternate server.

       -r "reason"
            Sets the reason string that is shown for a printer that is rejecting jobs.

CONFORMING TO
       The cupsaccept and cupsreject commands correspond to the System V printing system commands "accept"  and  "reject",  respec‐
       tively.   Unlike  the  System  V printing system, CUPS allows printer names to contain any printable character except SPACE,
       TAB, "/", or "#".  Also, printer and class names are not case-sensitive.

       Finally, the CUPS versions may ask the user for an access password depending on the printing system configuration.
