The first form (-m) lists the available drivers, while the second form (-v) lists the available devices. OPTIONS lpinfo accepts the following options: -E Forces encryption when connecting to the server. -h server[:port] Selects an alternate server. -l Shows a "long" listing of devices or drivers. --device-id device-id-string Specifies the IEEE-1284 device ID to match when listing drivers with the -m option. --exclude-schemes scheme-list Specifies a comma-delimited list of device or PPD schemes that should be excluded from the results. Static PPD files use the "file" scheme. --include-schemes scheme-list Specifies a comma-delimited list of device or PPD schemes that should be included in the results. Static PPD files use the "file" scheme. --language locale Specifies the language to match when listing drivers with the -m option. --make-and-model name Specifies the make and model to match when listing drivers with the -m option. --product name Specifies the product to match when listing drivers with the -m option. --timeout seconds Specifies the timeout when listing devices with the -v option. CONFORMING TO The lpinfo command is unique to CUPS. EXAMPLES List all devices: lpinfo -v List all drivers: lpinfo -m List drivers matching "HP LaserJet": lpinfo --make-and-model "HP LaserJet" -m ATTRIBUTES See attributes(7) for descriptions of the following attributes: +---------------+------------------+ |ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +---------------+------------------+ |Availability | print/cups | +---------------+------------------+ |Stability | Volatile | +---------------+------------------+ NOTES CUPS printer drivers and backends are deprecated and will no longer be supported in a future feature release of CUPS.
