NAME
lpstat - print information about the status of the print
service
SYNOPSIS
lpstat [-d] [-r] [-R] [-s] [-t] [ -a [list]] [ -c [list]] [
-f [list] [-l]] [ -o [list]] [ -p [list] [-D] [-l]] [ -S
[list] [-l]] [ -u [ login- ID -list]] [ -v [list]]
DESCRIPTION
The lpstat utility displays information about the current
status of the LP print service to standard output.
If no options are given, lpstat prints the status of all the
user's print requests made by lp. See lp(1). Any arguments
that are not options are assumed to be request-IDs as
returned by lp. The lpstat command prints the status of such
requests. options may appear in any order and may be
repeated and intermixed with other arguments. Some key
letters may be followed by an optional list that can be in
one of two forms: a list of items separated from one another
by a comma, or a list of items separated from one another by
spaces enclosed in quotes. For example:
example% lpstat -u "user1 user2 user3"
Specifying all after any key letter that takes list as an
argument causes all information relevant to the key letter
to be printed. For example, the command:
example% lpstat -o all
prints the status of all output requests.
The omission of a list following such key letters causes all
information relevant to the key letter to be printed. For
example, the command:
example% lpstat -o
prints the status of all output requests.
The print client commands locate destination information
using the "printers" database in the name service switch.
See nsswitch.conf(4), printers(4), and printers.conf(4) for
details.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported on all platforms.
-d Prints the default destination for
output requests.

-o [list] Prints the status of output
requests. list is a list of inter-
mixed printer names, class names,
and request-IDs. The key letter -o
may be omitted. Specify printer and
class names using atomic or POSIX-
style (server:destination) names.
See standards(5) for information
regarding POSIX.
-r Prints the status of the LP request
scheduler.
-R Prints a number showing the position
of each request in the print queue.
-s Prints a status summary, including
the status of the LP scheduler, the
default destination, a list of
printers and their associated dev-
ices, a list of the machines sharing
print services, a list of all forms
currently mounted, and a list of all
recognized character sets and print
wheels.
-t Prints all status information. This
includes all the information
obtained with the -s option, plus
the acceptance and idle/busy status
of all printers.
-u [login-ID-list] Prints the status of output requests
for users. The login-ID-list argu-
ment may include any or all of the
following constructs:
login-ID
a user on any system

User Commands lpstat(1)
system_name!login-ID
a user on system system_name
system_name!all
all users on system system_name
all!login-ID
a user on all systems
all
all users on all systems
-v [list] Prints the names of printers and the
path names of the devices associated
with them or remote system names for
network printers. list is a list of
printer names.
The following options return accurate results only if they
are issued from a Solaris 2.6 Operating Environment or com-
patible version of the LP print server.
-a [list] Reports whether print destinations
are accepting requests. list is a
list of intermixed printer names and
class names.
-c [list] Prints name of all classes and their
members. list is a list of class

-f [list] [-l] Prints a verification that the forms

print service. list is a list of
forms; the default is all. The -l
option will list the form descrip-
tions.
-p [list] [-D] [-l] Prints the status of printers. list
is a list of printer names. If the
-D option is given, a brief descrip-
tion is printed for each printer in
list. If the -l option is given and
the printer is on the local machine,
a full description of each printer's
configuration is returned, including
the form mounted, the acceptable
content and printer types, a printer
description, and the interface used.
-S [list] [-l] Prints a verification that the char-
acter sets or the print wheels
specified in list are recognized by
the LP print service. Items in list
can be character sets or print
wheels; the default for the list is
all. If the -l option is given, each
line is appended by a list of
printers that can handle the print
wheel or character set. The list
also shows whether the print wheel
or character set is mounted, or
specifies the built-in character set
into which it maps.
-d Prints the default destination for
output requests.
-o [list] Prints the status of output
requests. list is a list of inter-
mixed printer names, class names,
and request-IDs. The key letter -o
