System Administration Commands lpset(1M)
NAME
lpset - set printing configuration in /etc/printers.conf or
other supported databases
SYNOPSIS
lpset [-n system | nisplus | fnsldap] [-x] [ [-D binddn]
[-w passwd] [-h ldaphost]] [-a key=value] [-d key] desti-
nation
DESCRIPTION
The lpset utility sets printing configuration information in
the system configuration databases. Use lpset to create and
update printing configuration in /etc/printers.conf, or
printers.org_dir (NIS+). See nsswitch.conf(4) and
printers.conf(4).
Only a superuser or a member of Group 14 may execute lpset.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-n system|nisplus|ldap
Create or update the configuration information for the
destination entry in /etc/printers.conf,
printers.org_dir (NIS+), or LDAP printer contexts. sys-
tem specifies that the information is created or updated
in /etc/printers.conf. nisplus specifies that the infor-
mation is created or updated in the printers.org_dir
NIS+ table. ldap specifies that the information is writ-
ten to an LDAP server. See NOTES.
If -n is not specified, system is the default.
-x
Remove all configuration for the destination entry from
the database specified by the -n option.
-a key=value
Configure the specified key=value pair for the destina-
tion. See printers.conf(4) for information regarding
the specification of key=value pairs.

System Administration Commands lpset(1M)
-d key
Delete the configuration option specified by key for the
destination entry. See printers.conf(4) for information
regarding the specification of key and key=value pairs.
-D binddn
Use the distinguished name (DN) binddn to bind to the
LDAP directory server.
-w passwd
Use passwd as the password for authentication to the
LDAP directory server.
-h ldaphost
Specify an alternate host on which the LDAP server is
running. This option is only used when ldap is specified
as the naming service. If this option is not specified,
the default is the current host system.
OPERANDS
The following operand is supported:
destination Specifies the entry in /etc/printers.conf,
printers.org_dir, or LDAP, in which to
create or modify information. destination
names a printer of class of printers. See
lpadmin(1M). Each entry in printers.conf
describes one destination. Specify destina-
tion using atomic names. POSIX-style desti-
nation names are not acceptable. See
printers.conf(4) for information regarding
the naming conventions for atomic names and
standards(5) for information regarding
POSIX.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Removing All Existing Printing Configuration
Information

System Administration Commands lpset(1M)
The following example removes all existing printing confi-
guration information for destination dogs from
/etc/printers.conf:
example% lpset -x dogs
Example 2: Setting a key=value Pair
The following example sets the user-equivalence =true
key=value pair for destination tabloid in the NIS+ context:
example% lpset -n nisplus -a user-equivalence=true tabloid
Example 3: Setting a key=value Pair in LDAP
example% lpset -n ldap -h ldapl.xyz.com -D "cn=Directory Manager" \
-w passwd -a key1=value1 printer1
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
non-zero An error occurred.
FILES

NOTES
If the ldap database is used, the printer administrator
should be mindful of the following when updating printer
information.
1. Because the domain information for the printer being
updated is extracted from the ldapclient(1M) configura-
tion, the LDAP server being updated must host the same
domain that is used by the current ldapclient(1M)
server.
2. If the LDAP server being updated is a replica LDAP
server, the updates will be referred to the master LDAP
server and completed there. The updates might be out of
sync and not appear immediatedly, as the replica server
may not have been updated by the master server. For
example, a printer that you deleted by using lpset may
still appear in the printer list you display with lpget
until the replica is updated from the master. Replica
servers vary as to how often they are updated from the
master. See System Administration Guide: Advanced
Administration for information on LDAP server replica-
tion.
3. Although users can use the LDAP command line utilities
ldapadd(1) and ldapmodify(1) to update printer entries
in the directory, the preferred method is to use lpset.
Otherwise, if the ldapadd and ldapmodify utilities are
used, the administrator must ensure that the printer-
name attribute value is unique within the ou=printers
container on the LDAP server. If the value is not
unique, the result of modifications done using lpset or
the Solaris Print Manager, printmgr(1M) may be
unpredictable.
