User specific printing options

Hi,

how do I query available printer options and set defaults for my print requests?

I have found lpoptions (man lpoptions(1)) on the web but it doesn't seem to be available under Solaris and I can't work out how else to do it.

Thanks,
Bob

Solaris uses SystemV spooling, see lpstat and lpadmin perhaps.
