where printers a disabled if they do not respond with the default (300
sec?) timeout. But I could be wrong and you seem to have not luck with
it either. A script running with a high frequency to enable printers
can be put in crond. lpstat -t | grep disable > ${mytmp} cat ${mytmp} | grep 'printer' | awk '{print $2}' >
${mytmp}.txt for disabled_prn in `cat ${mytmp}.txt` do debug
"Disabled Printer
:${disabled_prn}"
/usr/bin/enable ${disabled_prn} debug
"Executing /usr/bin/enable ${disabled_prn} "
email_sub="PRN::Disabled printer ${disabled_prn} was enabled on `hostname -s`, `date`" debug
"Email
SUB
:${email_sub}" email_sysad done I have put a cron job in for a patch but I must figure out
why this is happening. cron basically runs /usr/bin/enable every 3 minutes. What “signal” does CUPS get to disable the
printer? Does it come from the system lpd somewhere? How can I track it? Cups error_log give no information. thanks |
