lpstat − print cups status information
lpstat [ -E ] [ -h server ] [ -l ] [ -W which-jobs ] [ -a [ destination(s) ] ] [ -c [ class(es) ] [ -d ] [ -o [ destination(s) ] ] [ -p [ printer(s) ] ] [ -r ] [ -R ] [ -s ] [ -t ] [ -u [ user(s) ] ] [ -v [ printer(s) ] ]
lpstat displays status information about the current classes, jobs, and printers. When run with no arguments, lpstat will list jobs queued by the user. Other options include:
−E |
Forces encryption when connecting to the server. |
−a [printer(s)]
Shows the accepting state of printer queues. If no printers are specified then all printers are listed.
−c [class(es)]
Shows the printer classes and the printers that belong to them. If no classes are specified then all classes are listed.
−d |
Shows the current default destination. |
−h server
Specifies the CUPS server to communicate with.
−l |
Shows a long listing of printers, classes, or jobs. |
−o [destination(s)]
Shows the jobs queue on the specified destinations. If no destinations are specified all jobs are shown.
−p [printer(s)]
Shows the printers and whether or not they are enabled for printing. If no printers are specified then all printers are listed.
−r |
Shows whether or not the CUPS server is running. | ||
−R |
Shows the ranking of print jobs. | ||
−s |
Shows a status summary, including the default destination, a list of classes and their member printers, and a list of printers and their associated devices. This is equivalent to using the "-d", "-c", and "-p" options. | ||
−t |
Shows all status information. This is equivalent to using the "-r", "-d", "-c", "-d", "-v", "-a", "-p", and "-o" options. |
−u [user(s)]
Shows a list of print jobs queued by the specified users. If no users are specified, lists the jobs queued by the current user.
−v [printer(s)]
Shows the printers and what device they are attached to. If no printers are specified then all printers are listed.
−W [which-jobs]
Specifies which jobs to show, completed or not-completed (the default). This option must appear before the -o option and/or any printer names, otherwise the default (not-completed) value will be used in the request to the scheduler.
Unlike the System V printing system, CUPS allows printer names to contain any printable character except SPACE and TAB. Also, printer and class names are not case-sensitive.
The "-h" and "-W" options are unique to CUPS.
The Solaris "-f", "-P", and "-S" options are silently ignored.
