NAME
lpstat - print cups status information
SYNOPSIS
lpstat [ -E ] [ -a [ destination(s) ] ] [ -c [ class(es) ] [ -d ] [ -h server ] [ -l ] [ -o [ destination(s) ] ] [ -p [ printer(s) ] ] [ -r
] [ -R ] [ -s ] [ -t ] [ -u [ user(s) ] ] [ -v [ printer(s) ] [ -W [ which-jobs ] ]
DESCRIPTION
lpstat displays status information about the current classes, jobs, and printers. When run with no arguments, lpstat will list jobs queued
by the user. Other options include:
-E
Forces encryption when connecting to the server.
-a [printer(s)]
Shows the accepting state of printer queues. If no printers are specified then all printers are listed.
-c [class(es)]
Shows the printer classes and the printers that belong to them. If no classes are specified then all classes are listed.
-d
Shows the current default destination.
-h server
Specifies the CUPS server to communicate with.
-l
Shows a long listing of printers, classes, or jobs.
-o [destination(s)]
Shows the jobs queue on the specified destinations. If no destinations are specified all jobs are shown.
-p [printer(s)]
Shows the printers and whether or not they are enabled for printing. If no printers are specified then all printers are listed.
-r
Shows whether or not the CUPS server is running.
-R
Shows the ranking of print jobs.
-s
Shows a status summary, including the default destination, a list of classes and their member printers, and a list of printers and
their associated devices. This is equivalent to using the "-d", "-c", and "-p" options.
-t
Shows all status information. This is equivalent to using the "-r", "-d", "-c", "-d", "-v", "-a", "-p", and "-o" options.
-u [user(s)]
Shows a list of print jobs queued by the specified users. If no users are specified, lists the jobs queued by the current user.
-v [printer(s)]
Shows the printers and what device they are attached to. If no printers are specified then all printers are listed.
-W [which-jobs]
Specifies which jobs to show, completed or not-completed (the default).
COMPATIBILITY
Unlike the System V printing system, CUPS allows printer names to contain any printable character except SPACE and TAB. Also, printer and
class names are not case-sensitive.
The "-h" option is not a standard System V option.
The Solaris "-f", "-P", and "-S" options are silently ignored.
The "-W" option is unique to CUPS.
