       lpstat [ -options ]

       cancel jobnumber [ ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       gspl-lpcover may be used instead of the standard lp command. It converts the options that
       most lp commands take to the equivalent gspl-pr(1) commandds and then invokes gspl-pr(1)
       to submit the print jobs.

       The gspl-pr program provides a much greater set of facilities than lp. Although it is
       strongly recommended to switch to the gspl-pr(1) command to take advantage of these, they
       can be made available to users of our gspl-lpcover command. This is done by setting up
       "GSPL_PR" in the application or user environment.

       Gspl-lpcover is usually installed in place of lp in /usr/bin, with the original binary
       moved to something like old.lp in the same directory.

       Gspl-lpstatc emulates lpstat as far as is practicable, generating a report of outstanding
       print jobs from the print queue in a format similar to the original lpstat.

       cancel is a shell script which invokes gspl-qdel(1) on its arguments.

       The other programs lpr, lpq and lprm are scripts to emulate the corresponding commands.

OPTIONS

       The options below document gspl-lpcover only. Options to gspl-lpstatc generate a warning
       message on standard error and are otherwise ignored. Options to gspl-lpcover which are not
       documented here are ignored.

       -c      This has no effect, but generates a warning message on standard error, as with
               GNUspool spool files are always copied.

       -d name Specify printer destination as name. The destination may also be specified in the
               environment variable "LPDEST", which this option overrides. An argument of "any"
               to -d cancels any existing "LPDEST" environment variable.

               This is translated directly into a -P option to gspl-pr.

       -f form specifies the supplied form type. This is translated directly into an -f option to
               gspl-pr.

       -H arg  There is no direct mapping for the -H argument.

       -m      Mail user. This is translated directly into an -m option to gspl-pr.

       -n n    Specify the number of copies. This is translated directly into a -c option to
               gspl-pr.

       -o arg  Only -o "nobanner", to suppress the header page, is interpreted and translated to
               the -s option to gspl-pr.

       -P arg  This is translated into -R page range arguments for gspl-pr.

       -q n    This is translated into a -p argument for gspl-pr scaled appropriately, taking
               into account the user's maximum, minimum and default priorities.

       -S      This option is ignored.

       -s      This turns off the -v argument for gspl-pr which is normally included.

       -T      This option is ignored.

       -t <arg>
               This is translated to a -h (title) argument to gspl-pr.

       -w      This is translated directly to the -w (write message) option to gspl-pr.

       -y      This option is ignored.

ENVIRONMENT

       LPDEST  Specify destination for gspl-lpcover.

       LPSTATFMT
               Specify alternate format for gspl-lpstatc.

DIAGNOSTICS

       Various warnings about unimplemented features are printed by gspl-lpcover and gspl-
       lpstatc.

       Others may be generated by software each invokes.
