<samba:parameter name="lppause command" context="S" print="1" xmlns:samba="http://samba.org/common"> <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> <para>Example for HPUX: <command moreinfo="none">lppause command = /usr/bin/lpalt %p-%j -p0</command></para> </listitem> </samba:parameter>
