LPQ(1MDQS)              COMMAND REFERENCE              LPQ(1MDQS)



NAME
     lpq - print queue status via MDQS

SYNOPSIS
     lpq [ -q queue ]

DESCRIPTION
     Lpq calls the MDQS program qstat(1mdqs), selecting printer
     queue information.  See qstat for detailed information.

     Lpq returns request identifications for queued print jobs,
     where a request identification is in the form user.job#. The
     job number is all that is usually required for lprm.

OPTIONS
     -q queue
        specifies queue configured in /etc/qconf. Default queue
        is print-queue specified in /etc/qconf. Qstat -a lists
        all available queues.

EXAMPLES
          lpq

FILES
     /etc/qconf   MDQS configuration file

RETURN VALUE
     [NO_ERRS]      Command completed without error.

     [USAGE]        Incorrect command line syntax. Execution
                    terminated.

     [NP_ERR]       An error occurred that was not a system
                    error.  Execution terminated.

CAVEATS
     Rsh privileges are required in order to display requests in
     a remote queue.

     Things can change while lpq is running; the picture it gives
     is only a close approximation of reality.  For instance, lpq
     may produce false error messages if it cannot find a
     particular file or if a data structure it is looking at
     changes underneath it.
