      "APPLICATION">lpq</b> Requests</a></h1>

      <p>The RFC1179 protocol specifies that <b class=
      "APPLICATION">lpq</b> print status requests can be sent to
      the <b class="APPLICATION">lpd</b> server. The lpq requests
      have the format:</p>

      <div class="INFORMALEXAMPLE">
        <a name="AEN10216"></a>
<pre class="SCREEN">
    \003printer [id]* \n    short
    \004printer [id]* \n    long
    \011printer [id]* \n    <b class=
"APPLICATION">LPRng</b> extension- verbose
</pre>
      </div>
      <br>
      <br>

      <p>The <b class="APPLICATION">lpd</b> print server will then
      return queue status and close the data connection.</p>

      <p>RFC1179 does not state in any manner what the format of
      the queue status should be. Thus, implementors have been free
      to augment or change the status as they like. Even the BSD <b
      class="APPLICATION">lpq</b> status format has been changed
      from different versions.</p>

      <p>See <a href="lpq.htm"><b class="APPLICATION">lpq</b> -
      Status Monitoring Program</a> for information on the formats
      returned.</p>

      <p>The <tt class="LITERAL">id</tt> values are used to select
      the jobs to be displayed. <b class="APPLICATION">LPRng</b>
      displays any job whose ID, hostname, or user name information
      from the control file <tt class="LITERAL">A</tt>, <tt class=
      "LITERAL">H</tt>, or <tt class="LITERAL">P</tt> fields match
      any of the id values.</p>

      <p>Note that since there is no identification of the
      information requestor, then restriction of information is
      almost impossible.</p>
