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 the speciﬁed users on the

speciﬁed printer. At least one id or the name of a printer must be speciﬁed.

For each request submitted (by

lp command — 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 Status is requested on the speciﬁed printer.

-u user Status is requested on all requests for the user who executed the

rlpstat com-

mand on the speciﬁed printer (see the

-d option). You can repeat the

-u option to

specify more users. The maximum number of users that can be speciﬁed is 50.

id Status is requested on the speciﬁed request IDs (as returned by

lp). All the request

IDs must be for the same printer. The maximum number of request IDs that can be

speciﬁed is 50.
