Either - they are all IPP attributes, and can be passed as options to the lpadmin command (which maps them to IPP attributes...)

You cannot set them all.  The following can be set:

    *-default
    auth-info-required
    device-uri
    job-quota-period
    job-k-limit
    job-page-limit
    port-monitor
    printer-error-policy
    printer-info
    printer-is-accepting-jobs
    printer-is-shared
    printer-geo-location
    printer-location
    printer-op-policy
    printer-organization
    printer-organizational-unit
    printer-state
    printer-state-message
    printer-state-reasons
    requesting-user-name-allowed
    requesting-user-name-denied
