26 The \fBlpstat\fR utility displays information about the current status of the
27 \fBLP\fR print service to standard output.
30 If no options are given, \fBlpstat\fR prints the status of all the user's print
31 requests made by \fBlp\fR. See \fBlp\fR(1). Any arguments that are not
32 \fIoptions\fR are assumed to be \fIrequest-IDs\fR as returned by \fBlp\fR. The
33 \fBlpstat\fR command prints the status of such requests. \fIoptions\fR appears
34 in any order and can be repeated and intermixed with other arguments. Some key
35 letters can be followed by an optional \fIlist\fR that can be in one of two
36 forms: a list of items separated from one another by a comma, or a list of
37 items separated from one another by spaces enclosed in quotes. For example:
41 example% \fBlpstat -u "user1 user2 user3"\fR
48 Specifying \fBall\fR after any key letter that takes \fIlist\fR as an argument
49 causes all information relevant to the key letter to be printed. For example,
54 example% \fBlpstat -o all\fR
61 prints the status of all output requests.
64 The omission of a \fIlist\fR following such key letters causes all information
65 relevant to the key letter to be printed. For example, the command:
69 example% \fBlpstat -o\fR
76 prints the status of all output requests.
79 The print client commands locate destination information using the "printers"
80 database in the name service switch. See \fBnsswitch.conf\fR(4),
81 \fBprinters\fR(4), and \fBprinters.conf\fR(4) for details.
84 The following options are supported:
88 \fB\fB-a\fR [\fIlist\fR]\fR
91 Reports whether print destinations are accepting requests. \fIlist\fR is a list
92 of intermixed printer names and class names.
94 If the print queue is remote and IPP is in use, the information provided is
95 very close to that reported for local queues. If the print queue is remote and
96 IPP is not in use (the print server is older than Solaris 9, Update 6 or
97 another RFC-1179-based print service), this option does not report any useful
104 \fB\fB-c\fR [\fIlist\fR]\fR
107 Prints name of all classes and their members. \fIlist\fR is a list of class
110 If the print queue is remote and IPP is in use, the information provided is
111 very close to that reported for local queues. If the print queue is remote and
112 IPP is not in use (the print server is older than Solaris 9, Update 6 or
113 another RFC-1179-based print service), this option does not report any useful
123 Prints the default destination for output requests.
129 \fB\fB\fR\fB-f\fR[\fIlist\fR] [\fB-l\fR]\fR
132 Prints a verification that the forms in \fIlist\fR are recognized by the
133 \fBLP\fR print service. \fIlist\fR is a list of forms; the default is
134 \fBall\fR. The \fB-l\fR option lists the form descriptions.
136 If the print queue is remote and IPP is in use, the information provided is
137 very close to that reported for local queues. If the print queue is remote and
138 IPP is not in use (the print server is older than Solaris 9, Update 6 or
139 another RFC-1179-based print service), this option does not report any useful
146 \fB\fB-l\fR [\fIlevel\fR]\fR
149 Specifies the verbosity level for extended reporting of printer or job objects
150 (\fB-o\fR, \fB-p\fR, \fB-r\fR, \fB-u\fR). Without this option, a level of
151 \fB0\fR is used, which reports summary information. When no level is specified,
152 a level of \fB1\fRis used, which provides more information about the object. A
153 level of \fB2\fR or more enumerates all of the object's attributes.
155 If the print queue is remote and IPP is in use, the information provided is
156 very close to that reported for local queues. If the print queue is remote and
157 IPP is not in use (the print server is older than Solaris 9, Update 6 or
158 another RFC-1179-based print service), this option does not report any useful
165 \fB\fB-o\fR [\fIlist\fR]\fR
168 Prints the status of output requests. \fIlist\fR is a list of intermixed
169 printer names, class names, and request-IDs. The key letter \fB-o\fR can be
172 Specify printer and class names using atomic, URI-style (scheme://endpoint), or
173 POSIX-style (\fIserver\fR\fB:\fR\fIdestination\fR) names. See
174 \fBprinters.conf\fR(4) for more information.
180 \fB\fB-p\fR [\fIlist\fR] [\fB-D\fR]\fR
183 Prints the status of printers. \fIlist\fR is a list of printer names. If the
184 \fB-D\fR option is given, a brief description is printed for each printer in
185 \fIlist\fR. If the \fB-l\fR option is given and the printer is on the local
186 machine, a full description of each printer's configuration is returned,
187 including the form mounted, the acceptable content and printer types, a printer
188 description, and the interface used.
190 If the print queue is remote and IPP is in use, correct job id is reported. If
191 the print queue is remote and IPP is not in use (the print server is older than
192 Solaris 9, Update 6 or another RFC-1179-based print service), \fB-p
193 [\fIlist\fR]\fR always reports the first job in the queue irrespective of its
203 Prints the status of the \fBLP\fR request scheduler.
212 Prints a number showing the position of each request in the print queue.
221 Prints a status summary, including the status of the \fBLP\fR scheduler, the
222 default destination, a list of printers and their associated devices, a list of
223 the machines sharing print services, a list of all forms currently mounted, and
224 a list of all recognized character sets and print wheels.
230 \fB\fB-S\fR [\fIlist\fR]\fR
233 Prints a verification that the character sets or the print wheels specified in
234 \fIlist\fR are recognized by the \fBLP\fR print service. Items in \fIlist\fR
235 can be character sets or print wheels; the default for the list is \fBall\fR.
236 If the \fB-l\fR option is given, each line is appended by a list of printers
237 that can handle the print wheel or character set. The list also shows whether
238 the print wheel or character set is mounted, or specifies the built-in
239 character set into which it maps.
241 If the print queue is remote and IPP is in use, the information provided is
242 very close to that reported for local queues. If the print queue is remote and
243 IPP is not in use (the print server is older than Solaris 9, Update 6 or
244 another RFC-1179-based print service), this option does not report any useful
254 Prints all status information. This includes all the information obtained with
255 the \fB-s\fR option, plus the acceptance and idle/busy status of all printers.
261 \fB\fB-u\fR [\fIlogin-ID-list\fR]\fR
264 Prints the status of output requests for users. The \fIlogin-ID-list\fR
265 argument can include any or all of the following constructs:
278 \fB\fIsystem_name\fR\fB!\fR\fIlogin-ID\fR\fR
281 a user on system \fIsystem_name\fR
287 \fB\fIsystem_name\fR\fB!all\fR\fR

299 a user on all systems
308 all users on all systems
316 \fB\fB-v\fR [\fIlist\fR]\fR
319 Prints the names of printers and the path names of the devices associated with
320 them or remote system names for network printers. \fIlist\fR is a list of

403 For remote print queues, the BSD print protocol provides a very limited set of
404 information. The Internet Print Protocol (IPP) is preferred.
407 When IPP is in use, the user is prompted for a passphrase if the remote print
408 service is configured to require authentication.
