4-2 Printing with UNIX Workstations
• On a system running Solaris 2 or any System V implementation of UNIX, use the lpr
command to send a job to the DocuColor as follows:
lpr -d <printername> {-n <-#copies>} <filename>
For example, if the Print queue of your DocuColor is named print_Server, your file is
named Sample, and you want to print two copies, type:
lpr -d print_Server -n 2 Sample
TO DISPLAY A LIST OF JOBS IN THE QUEUE:
• On a system running SunOS 4 or another BSD-based variant, use the lpq command to
see printer jobs in the queue as follows:
lpq <-Pprinter>
For example, if the Print queue of your DocuColor is named print_Server, type:
lpq -Pprint_Server
Your workstation displays the contents of the queue.
• On a system running Solaris 2 or any System V implementation of UNIX, use the lpstat
command to see printer jobs in the queue as follows:
lpstat -o <printername>
For example, if the Print queue of your DocuColor is named print_Server, type:
lpstat -o print_Server
Your workstation displays the contents of the queue.
TO REMOVE JOBS FROM THE QUEUE:
NOTE: Unless you log in as the root user, you can remove only your own jobs.
• On a system running SunOS 4 or another BSD-based variant, use the lprm command to
remove jobs from the queue as follows.
lprm <-Pprinter> <job #…>
