+<listitem>
+    <para>This parameter specifies the command to be 
+    executed on the server host in order to stop printing or spooling 
+    a specific print job.</para>
+
+    <para>This command should be a program or script which takes 
+    a printer name and job number to pause the print job. One way 
+    of implementing this is by using job priorities, where jobs 
+    having a too low priority won't be sent to the printer.</para>
+
+    <para>If a <parameter moreinfo="none">%p</parameter> is given then the printer name 
+    is put in its place. A <parameter moreinfo="none">%j</parameter> is replaced with 
+    the job number (an integer).  On HPUX (see <parameter moreinfo="none">printing=hpux
+    </parameter>), if the <parameter moreinfo="none">-p%p</parameter> option is added 
+    to the lpq command, the job will show up with the correct status, i.e. 
+    if the job priority is lower than the set fence priority it will 
+    have the PAUSED status, whereas if  the priority is equal or higher it 
+    will have the SPOOLED or PRINTING status.</para>
+
+    <para>Note that it is good practice to include the absolute path 
+    in the lppause command as the PATH may not be available to the server.</para>
+
+    <para>See also the <link linkend="PRINTING"><parameter moreinfo="none">printing
+    </parameter></link> parameter.</para>
+
+    <para>Default: Currently no default value is given to 
+    this string, unless the value of the <parameter moreinfo="none">printing</parameter> 
+    parameter is <constant>SYSV</constant>, in which case the default is :</para>
+
+    <para><command moreinfo="none">lp -i %p-%j -H hold</command></para>
+
+    <para>or if the value of the <parameter moreinfo="none">printing</parameter> parameter 
+    is <constant>SOFTQ</constant>, then the default is:</para>
+
+    <para><command moreinfo="none">qstat -s -j%j -h</command></para>
