Administering printer groups Configuring Xprint V7.0
6.5.4 Deactivating a printer group
To deactivate a printer group, use the xpchange -dgr command. You can only
change the current spoolin status of the printer groups you manage.
● Use the following command to deactivate a printer group:
xpchange -dgr [selection] -si OFF [-ju justification]
If selection is not specified, the command refers to all the printer groups in the
Xprint V7.0 system. Otherwise you can either specify a list of the printer
groups to be deactivated, 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 printer groups to be deactivated
are selected.
The option -si OFF specifies the new spoolin status (in this case OFF) for the
selected printer group. When -si OFF is set, the print requests for the
selected printer groups are rejected.
With the option -ju justification you specify a comment justifying the new
spoolin status. You can display this comment with the xpstat -dgr
command. This comment is deleted automatically when the -si option is
changed again with the xpchange -dgr command.
Examples
– To change the spoolin status of printer group group1 to OFF with the justifi-
cation that the group is being modified:
xpchange -dgr group1 -si OFF -ju "group is being modified"
– To deactivate all printer groups which contain printer printer8 (remember
that all criteria used for selecting the printer groups must be enclosed in
quotes):
xpchange -dgr -scl "-dl printer8” -si OFF
– To deactivate all printer groups:
xpchange -dgr -si OFF -ju "complete reorganization"
