You might want to check the file "/etc/qconfig" and see which information this provides. If you still need additional information about your print queues report back and we will see what we can do for you.
I hope this helps.

Hi Bakunin,
Thanks for that. qconfig at least got me a link between the queue name and the port number and comm type (HP JetDirect), which is further along than i was before. I now need to find the driver/model of the printer and the default paper orientation. I've gone through the resources I can find, and I seem to be able to retrieve every little bit of information about these printers except for these two items.
Is there anywhere this information is to be had?

lprm
LPRM(1) BSD General Commands Manual LPRM(1)NAME
lprm -- remove jobs from the line printer spooling queue
SYNOPSIS
lprm [-] [-P printer] [-w maxwait] [job# ...] [user ...]
DESCRIPTION
lprm will remove a job, or jobs, from a printer's spool queue. Since the spooling directory is protected from users, using lprm is normally
the only method by which a user may remove a job. The owner of a job is determined by the user's login name and host name on the machine
where the lpr(1) command was invoked.
Options and arguments:
-Pprinter
Specify the queue associated with a specific printer (otherwise the default printer is used).
-w maxwait
Specify the maximum time to wait in seconds for remote responses. The default is 300 seconds or 5 minutes.
- If a single '-' is given, lprm will remove all jobs which a user owns. If the super-user employs this flag, the spool queue will be
emptied entirely.
user Causes lprm to attempt to remove any jobs queued belonging to that user (or users). This form of invoking lprm is useful only to the
super-user.
job # A user may dequeue an individual job by specifying its job number. This number may be obtained from the lpq(1) program, e.g.
% lpq -l
1st:ken [job #013ucbarpa]
(standard input) 100 bytes
% lprm 13
If neither arguments or options are given, lprm will delete the currently active job if it is owned by the user who invoked lprm.
lprm announces the names of any files it removes and is silent if there are no jobs in the queue which match the request list.
lprm will kill off an active daemon, if necessary, before removing any spooling files. If a daemon is killed, a new one is automatically
restarted upon completion of file removals.
ENVIRONMENT
If the following environment variable exists, it is used by lprm.
PRINTER If the environment variable PRINTER exists, and a printer has not been specified with the -P option, the default printer is assumed
from PRINTER.
FILES
/etc/printcap Printer characteristics file.
/var/spool/output/* Spooling directories.
/var/spool/output/*/lock Lock file used to obtain the pid of the current daemon and the job number of the currently active job.
DIAGNOSTICS
``Permission denied'' if the user tries to remove files other than his own.
SEE ALSO lpq(1), lpr(1), lpd(8)HISTORY
The lprm command appeared in 3.0BSD.
BUGS
Since there are race conditions possible in the update of the lock file, the currently active job may be incorrectly identified.
