DESCRIPTION
tsm.lpadmin
is used to add (or remove) a printer to (or from) the
LP spooling system when the printer is connected to the system
through a terminal running the Terminal Session Manager (see
tsm(1)).
tsm.lpadmin
is a shell script that uses
lpadmin
in the normal way but also creates a named pipe to which
LP output is directed (see
lpadmin(1)).
This named pipe is opened by TSM
and data flowing from it is sent to the printer through the terminal.

recognizes the following options:
- -p printer
Names a printer to be created with an associated pipe.
If
-p
is used,
-m
must also be specified.
- -m model
Selects a model interface program for
printer.
model
is one of the model interface names supplied with the
LP
software (see the
Models
subsection in the
lpadmin(1))
manpage.
If
-m
is used,
-p
must also be specified.
- -x printer
Removes
printer
from the LP system.
No other options are allowed with
-x.
Security Restrictions

tsm.lpadmin
you must be user
lp
or
