Net::CUPS::Destination(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::CUPS::Destination(3)

Net::CUPS::Destination - CUPS Destination Object

  use Net::CUPS::Destination;

  my $printer = $cups->getDestination( "lj4200dn" );

  my $name = $printer->getName();

  my @options = $printer->getOptions();

  my $jobid = $printer->printFile( $filename, $title );

Net::CUPS is an object oriented interface to the Common Unix Printing System.

Net::CUPS::Destination is an abstraction of the concept of a destination in CUPS. Destinations will most likely be a printer, but it can be any type of target in which a file is sent for processing.

$dest->addOption( $name, $value );

Method to add another option name/value pair to the destination.

cancelJob
my $dest->cancelJob( $jobid );

Method to chancel a job sent to this destination.

getDescription
my $description = $dest->getDescription();

Provides the description string associated with this printer.

getError
my $error = $dest->getError();

Utility method for returning the last error that occurred.

getName
my $name = $dest->getName();

Method to return the name of the destination.

getJob
my $job = $dest->getJob( $jobid )

Method to get a specific job as a hash of attributes.

getJobs
my @jobs = $dest->getJobs( $whose, $scope );

This method will return an array of job identifiers. $whose is 0 for all users and 1 is just for the selected user. $scope is -1 for all jobs, 0 for active jobs and 1 for completed jobs.

my $value = $dest->getOptionValue( $name );

This utility method will return the value of the selected option.

getOptions
my @options = $dest->getOptions();

This method will return an array of the options currently set on the destination.

printFile
my $jobid = $dest->printFile( $filename, $title );

I know this is the method that you have been looking for. This is what you will use to send a file to handled by the destination. You must provide the name of the file and a title for the job.

getUri
my $uri = $dest->getUri();

This function returns the device URI of a destination. For example, a network printer might appear as socket://192.168.1.1

This function returns the state of a destination. The value is an enumeration type with 3 meaning 'idle', 4 'processing' and 5 'stopped'.
