lpstat [ioport] [jobID]
Example:
lpstat prn

ioport
or jobID. Specifying one of these parameters will
shorten the output and focus on the particular I/O port or print
job specified.
cancel jobID
Example:
cancel d1prn-10
Remove a job from an I/O port queue. Use lpstat to find a
particular job ID first.
start fox|tts|loopb prn

troubleshooting hardware as long as the
attached printer supports text output.
tts A continuous stream of Gandalf 400C
TTS-compatible text sent to the attached
printer.
loopb Loopback test. Any input characters from the
device attached to the I/O port is echoed
back.
