Changing the print queue status

There are four print queue states:

These states are not all mutually exclusive. For example, an enabled queue may reject jobs.

The printer driver shows these states by placing an icon on the print queue within the Icon View, and by changing the color of the text in Detail View.

To change the status of a print queue within the printer driver:

  1. Right-click the print queue.

  2. Select or clear the appropriate Enabled and Accepting check boxes.

To change the status of a print queue from the command line, type the following command:

# /usr/dellprint/bin/chqueue -q myqueue -m accept|reject|enable|disable
