I'm using the 'class' feature to protect certain forms
from accidentally being printed on (specifically, serialized
check blanks).
This works great, however...
When I do an lpq -s, the jobs that are not of the current
printer class do not show up. Note that they do when
I do a simple lpq. Here is an example:
panshin# lpq -s -Pvampir
vampir@panshin (classes doogie) 0 jobs
panshin# lpq -Pvampir
Printer: vampir@panshin 'nam=Epson 740,own=kent,loc=mobile_office' (classes doogie)
Queue: no printable jobs in queue
Holding: 4 held jobs in queue
Server: no server active
Status: job 'root@panshin+453' removed at 15:37:28.153
Filter_status: done at 15:37:27.350
Rank Owner/ID Class Job Files Size Time
holdclass root@panshin+469 A 469 (stdin) 29 10:19:05
holdclass root@panshin+473 A 473 (stdin) 29 10:19:06
holdclass root@panshin+477 A 477 (stdin) 29 10:19:06
holdclass root@panshin+481 A 481 (stdin) 29 10:19:07
This seems somewhat inconsistent, if not exactly a show stopper. It confused the
heck out of one of my users, who thought his jobs were being thrown away...
Stupid users!
Oh well,
Kent
