>
> I am running LPRng (v 3.6.26) on RH Linux v6.2. Users on remote UnixWare
> v 7.1 are sending print job using ATT printing system.
> The ATT printing system uses -o for option specifications.

> Unixware users user use:
> lp -d PRINTER -o OPTIONS
>
> I would like to see how print request and especially these -o OPTIONS
> are arriving at Linux box.
>
> Unixware manuals are totally mute on the subject. My efforts with
> prifix_o_to_z are ineffective. I suspect that UnixWare may not be
> sending the -o options or might do it incorrectly (no that cannot be ;-)
> ) but I would like to be sure?
>
> Is there a way to see them?

On the Linux/Unix box:
%#> lpc stop
On the Unixware box:
@@ > lp -d PRINTER -o OPTIONS
Now check to see if the job arrived:
%#> lpq
Now cd to the spool directory and look at the control file
for the job:
%#> cd /var/spool/lpd/lp
%#> more cf*
