NAME

       lpd_status  -  display  status and entries of a remote lpd
       print queue

SYNOPSIS

       lpd_status [-l] [-v] queue@host | host [queue]

DESCRIPTION

       lpd_status retrieves the status and  queued  entries  from
       the  BSD  line  printer  daemon  at  host.   The status of
       queueischecked, or lp if not specified.

       To be compliant with RFC-1179, this program must run  SUID
       root,  so  that  a  privileged  outbound port may be used.
       However, many lpd servers found on networked  printers  do
       not enforce this requirement.

OPTIONS

       -l     Request the long form of the queue.

       -v     Print warnings and fatal errors.

       -vv    Print  warnings, fatal errors, and informative mes-
              sages.

       -vvv   Print everything (debug level).
