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.

AUTHOR

rlpstat was developed by the University of California, Berkeley, and HP.
