DESCRIPTION
     enable starts the named printers or classes.

     disable  stops the named printers or classes.  The following options may be
     used:

     -c
          Cancels all jobs on the named destination.

     -r [ reason ]
          Sets the message associated with the stopped state. If  no  reason  is
          specified then the message is set to "Reason Unknown".

     The -E option forces encryption when connecting to the server.

COMPATIBILITY
     The  CUPS  versions  of  disable  and enable may ask the user for an access
     password depending on the printing system configuration.  This differs from
     the System V versions which require the root user  to  execute  these  com-
     mands.
