ProcedureHow to Restart the Print Scheduler

  1. Become superuser or assume an equivalent role.

    Roles contain authorizations and privileged commands. For more information about roles, see Configuring RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Security Services.

  2. Determine if the print scheduler is running.


    # svcs application/print/server
    

    You can also use the lpstat -r command to determine if the print scheduler is running.

    If the print scheduler is not running, the message scheduler is not running is displayed.

  3. If the print scheduler is not running, start it.


    # svcadm enable application/print/server
    

    You can also use the /usr/lib/lpsched command to start the print scheduler. For more information about the difference between starting the print scheduler by using the /usr/lib/lpsched command or by using the svcadm enable application/print server command, see Starting the Print Scheduler With Options.
