PRINTING USING XEROX UTILITIES AND LPR UTILITIES (DOS AND UNIX)
lpq in UNIX
Use the lpq command to show the content of the DocuPrint printer queue for a specific virtual printer, including the printer status, the status of the UNIX print daemon, and the name of the host from which the job originated.
If you do not use options to specify a particular job number or user name, the system displays information on all jobs in the default print queue. Refer to the lpq command man page for more information.
