<A NAME="lbAC">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2>
<B>lpc</B>
[
<I>command</I>
[
<I>parameter(s)</I>
] ]
<A NAME="lbAD">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<B>lpc</B> provides limited control over printer and class queues provided by CUPS. It can also be used to query the state of queues.
<P>
If no command is specified on the command-line, <B>lpc</B> displays a prompt and accepts commands from the standard input.
<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
<H3>COMMANDS</H3>
The <B>lpc</B> program accepts a subset of commands accepted by the Berkeley <B>lpc</B> program of the same name:
<DL COMPACT>
<DT id="1"><B>exit</B>
<DD>
Exits the command interpreter.
<DT id="2"><B>help </B>[<I>command</I>]<DD>
<DT id="3"><B>? </B>[<I>command</I>]<DD>
Displays a short help message.
<DT id="4"><B>quit</B>
<DD>
Exits the command interpreter.
<DT id="5"><B>status </B>[<I>queue</I>]<DD>
Displays the status of one or more printer or class queues.
</DL>
<A NAME="lbAF">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>NOTES</H2>
This program is deprecated and will be removed in a future feature release of CUPS.
<P>
Since <B>lpc</B> is geared towards the Berkeley printing system, it is impossible to use <B>lpc</B> to configure printer or class queues provided by CUPS.
To configure printer or class queues you must use the
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?8+lpadmin">lpadmin</A></B>(8)
command or another CUPS-compatible client with that functionality.
