A colleague of mine has previously set up a couple of queues for printers using JetDirect card and thus he'd installed the software so unfortunately I don't know how he got that part of it installed.

I know what my queue name is, but it's the syntax of the hostname that's getting me; other JetDirect queues have a device name of hp@queuename.

foomatic-printjob

FOOMATIC-PRINTJOB(1)					      General Commands Manual					      FOOMATIC-PRINTJOB(1)

NAME

       foomatic-printjob - manage printer jobs in a spooler-independent fashion

SYNOPSIS

       foomatic-printjob [ -s spooler ] [ -P queuename ] [ -o option1=value1 -o option2 ... ] [ -i ] [ file1 file2 ... ]

       foomatic-printjob -Q [ -s spooler ] [ -P queuename ] [ -i ] [ -a ] [ user1 user2 ... ]

       foomatic-printjob -R [ -s spooler ] [ -P queuename ] [ -i ] [ - | jobid1 jobid2 ... ]

       foomatic-printjob -C [ -s spooler ] [ -i ] command [ arguments ]

       foomatic-printjob -S [ -s spooler ] [ -i ]

       foomatic-printjob -h [ -s spooler ] [ -P queuename ] [ -i ]

DESCRIPTION

       foomatic-printjob  provides  a  spooler-independent  interface to creating and managing printer jobs and print queues.  Note that the first
       argument changes the mode of the command, as it combines the functionality of several System V-style printing commands.

   OPTIONS
       -sspooler Explicit spooler type.

       -Pqueuename
		 Any commands specified should apply to this queue instead of the default.

       -ooption=value
		 Set option to value

       -ooption  Set the switch option

       -#n	 Print n copies

       file1  file2  ...
		 Files to be printed, when no file is given, standard input will be printed

       -Q	 Query the jobs in a queue.  If a list of users is specified, only those users' jobs will be queried.

       -Q -a	 Query the jobs in all queues.	If a list of users is specified, only those users' jobs will be queried.

       -R [ - | jobid1 jobid2 ... ]
		 Remove a job from a queue.  Using - will remove all jobs.

       -C command [ arguments ]
		 Execute control commands for queue/job manipulation.  The commands are the ones of the BSD "lpc" utility. Use the control command
		 "help"  to  get  a  list of supported commands. Note: the amount of commands varies with the spooler, but the same commands given
		 under different spoolers do the same thing.

       -i	 Interactive mode: You will be asked if foomatic-printjob is in doubt about  something.  Otherwise  foomatic-printjob  uses  auto-
		 detection or quits with an error.

       -S	 Save the chosen spooler as the default spooler

       -h	 Show this message or show a list of available options if a queue is specified

       This manpage still needs some editing.
