Sorry to be a pain about status messages...
If, say, the paper runs out in the middle of a job on an HP JetDirect
printer, lpq reports only
Status: processing 'dfA688printserver', size 136, format 'f', IF filter 'ifhp' at
19:12:51.441
Filter_status: getting end using 'pjl job/eoj' at 19:13:03.961
...is there any way to have LPRng report the real printer error via lpq?
tcpdump says the printer is indeed periodically sending
@PJL.USTATUS.TIMED..CODE=41900..DISPLAY="TRAY.EMPTY"..ONLINE=FALSE (where
the "." characters are just placeholders).
lpd_printcap entry:
scribe
:server
:oh=printserver
:filter=/usr/local/libexec/filters/ifhp
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P
:lf=/var/spool/lpd/%P/log
:mx=0
:mc=0
:lp=scribe-pr%9100
:ifhp=model=hp2100
Thanks for any insight,
_Rob
