NAME
rlpstat — print status of LP spooler requests on a remote system
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/rlpstat
[-d
printer]
[-u
user]
[id]...
DESCRIPTION
rlpstat
reports the status of the specified jobs
or all requests associated with a user.
If no arguments are specified,
rlpstat
reports on any requests currently in the queue.
For each request submitted (i.e., each invocation of
lp
— see
lp(1))
rlpstat
reports the request
ID,
user's name, total size of the request, date of the request,
and, if it is being transferred, the device.
This command is intended to be used only by the spool system in
response to the
lpstat
command and should not be invoked directly (see
lpstat(1)).
Options
rlpstat
recognizes the following options and command-line arguments:
- -d printer
Specify a particular printer.
Otherwise, the default line printer is used (or the value of the
LPDEST
environment variable).
- -u user
Status is requested on all requests for the user who executed the
rlpstat
command on the specified printer (see the
-d
option).
- id
Status is requested on the specified request
IDs
(as returned by
lp).
All the request
IDs
must be for the same printer.
