NAME
cupsdisable, cupsenable - stop/start printers and classes
SYNOPSIS

cupsenable [ -E ] [-U username ] [ -c ] [ -h server[:port] ] destination(s)
DESCRIPTION
cupsenable starts the named printers or classes.
cupsdisable stops the named printers or classes. The following options may be used:
-E
Forces encryption of the connection to the server.
-U username
Uses the specified username when connecting to the server.
-c
Cancels all jobs on the named destination.
-h server[:port]
Uses the specified server and port.
-r "reason"
Sets the message associated with the stopped state. If no reason is specified then the message

COMPATIBILITY
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.
The System V versions of these commands are disable and enable. They have been renamed to avoid con-flicts conflicts
flicts with the bash(1) build-in command of the same name.
The CUPS versions of disable and enable may ask the user for an access password depending on the
printing system configuration. This differs from the System V versions which require the root user
to execute these commands.
