DESCRIPTION

       lpstat  displays  status  information about the current classes, jobs, and printers.  When
       run with no arguments, lpstat will list active jobs queued by the current user.

OPTIONS

       The lpstat command supports the following options:

       -E   Forces encryption when connecting to the server.

       -H   Shows the server hostname and port.

       -R   Shows the ranking of print jobs.

       -U username
            Specifies an alternate username.

       -W which-jobs
            Specifies which jobs to show, "all, "successful", "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.

       -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.

       -e   Shows all available destinations on the local network.

       -h server[:port]
            Specifies an alternate server.  Note: This option must occur before all others.

       -l   Shows a long listing of printers, classes, or jobs.

       -o [destination(s)]
            Shows  the  jobs  queued  on  the  specified  destinations.   If  no destinations are
            specified all jobs are shown.

       -p [printer(s)]
            Shows the printers and whether they are enabled for printing.   If  no  printers  are
            specified then all printers are listed.

       -r   Shows whether the CUPS server is running.

       -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 -v options.

       -t   Shows  all  status  information.  This is equivalent to using the -r, -d, -c, -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.

CONFORMING TO

       Unlike the System V printing system, CUPS allows printer names to  contain  any  printable
       character  except  SPACE,  TAB, "/", and "#".  Also, printer and class names are not case-
       sensitive.

       The -h, -e, -E, -U, and -W options are unique to CUPS.

       The Solaris -f, -P, and -S options are silently ignored.
