SYNOPSIS

      disable [ -E ] [ -c ] [ -h server ] [ -r reason ] destination(s)
      enable [ -E ] destination(s)

DESCRIPTION

      enable starts the named printers or classes.
 
      disable stops the named printers or classes.  The following options may
      be used:
 
      -c
           Cancels all jobs on the named destination.
 
      -r [ reason ]
           Sets the message associated with the stopped state. If  no  reason
           is specified then the message is set to "Reason Unknown".
 
      The -E option forces encryption when connecting to the server.

COMPATIBILITY

      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.
