lpstat(1)                                               lpstat(1)



     NAME
          lpstat - print LP status information

     SYNOPSIS
          lpstat [-a[list]] [-c[list]] [-d] [-o[list]] [-p[list]] [-r]
          [-s] [-t] [-u[list]] [-v[list]]

     DESCRIPTION
          lpstat prints information about the current status of the LP
          line printer system.

          If no flag options are given, then lpstat prints the status
          of all requests made to lp(1) by the user.  Any arguments
          that are not flag options are assumed to be request IDs (as
          returned by lp).  lpstat prints the status of such requests.
          Flag options may appear in any order and may be repeated and
          intermixed with other arguments.  Some of the options below
          may be followed by an optional list that can be in one of
          two forms:  a list of items separated from one another by a
          comma, or a list of items enclosed in double quotes and
          separated from one another by a comma and/or one or more
          spaces.  For example:

               -u user1, user2, user3

          The omission of a list following such options causes all in-
          formation relevant to the options to be printed, for exam-
          ple:

               lpstat -o
