6.4.3 Reactivating a printer
To be able to submit print jobs for a printer or start printing, you must first
activate the printer.
● Activate the printer with the following command:
xpchange -dev [selection] [-si ON | -so ON] [-ju justification]
If you do not specify a selection, the command refers to all printers in the
system; otherwise you can either specify a list of the printers to be activated,
or you can use the -scl “selection_criteria_list” option (see section
“Selection criteria list” on page 266 in the Appendix) to define a list of criteria
according to which the printers to be activated are selected.
With the -si ON option, you can reactivate spoolin only, with -so ON spoolout
only. If neither of these options is specified, the printer is reactivated
completely.
With the option -ju justification you specify a comment justifying the new
spoolin status. You can display this comment with the xpstat -dev
command.
Examples
– To activate printer printer1 with the justification that it is now ready again:
xpchange -dev printer1 -ju "ready again"
– To activate spoolin for all printers connected to host colorado:
xpchange -dev -scl "-ho colorado" -si ON
– To activate all printers:
xpchange -dev
