Deactivating spoolin

You can deactivate a printer, but still have it print the print jobs waiting in the print queue. To do this set its spoolin status to OFF. In this case all print jobs which have the status ACTIVE or WAIT are still printed; however, at the same time you lock the spoolin of new print jobs with this command.

●Use the following command:

xpchange -dev [selection] -si OFF [-jujustification]

The -sioption stands for spoolin.

Deactivating printing

If a printer is not available for a short period of time only (e.g. because the toner needs to be refilled), you can still submit print jobs which will be printed when the printer becomes available again.

●Use the following command:

xpchange -dev [selection] -so OFF [-jujustification]

The -sooption stands for spoolout.

Examples

–To deactivate the printer printer1 with the justification that the printer is being repaired:

xpchange -dev printer1 -st NOT_ACTIVE -ju "printer is being repaired"

–To deactivate all printers controlled by the host colorado: xpchange -dev -scl "-ho colorado" -st NOT_ACTIVE

–To deactivate all printers you manage: xpchange -dev -st NOT_ACTIVE

–To deactivate printer printer1, but have all waiting jobs printed before the printer is removed from the network:

xpchange -dev printer1 -si OFF

–To deactivate printer printer1 because the paper is being refilled: xpchange -dev -so OFF -ju "refilling paper"
