Is it possible to restrict the availability of a printer so that it will only
print between certain hours although it accepts print jobs 24/7?
Use /usr/bin/disable and /usr/bin/enable (see "man disable")
in a cron script.
Compare "man disable" with "man accept".

Hi, Johannes.

Thanks for the information. It seems from direct experiment that accept 
needs to be set then use disable and enable to toggle. I hadn't seen 
these commands in my searches.

Now to set my first cron jobs!

John
