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
