This seems such an obvious question, but until recently, I hadn't had to 
consider it. Is there any way to manage a print queue from the client side? 
I know of, and have used, lpq and lprm to manage and clear the queue on the 
server side.

A client of mine has started to have problems with an HP DeskJet 1220, 
where selection of 11x17 paper is causing a hang. However, the job either 
does not display (having already spooled) or won't cancel from the Print 
Manager on a different PC (where the queue can still be seen).

How do others manage this? Do you have clients access the command prompt, 
or is there an add-in that enables users to do this from the client side? 
If not, how feasible is it to develop a panel which would display the 
queue(s) and enable their manipulation?

Thanks,




Des Dougan
