How can you determine how many pages are left in a print job? We have one job that is currently printing, but it is tying up the printer for other use by our general Windows users. This printer is mainly used for printing from a Unix application running on AIX 4.3 on an IMB F40.

Running lpstat from the terminal prompt results in the following:

Queue Dev Status Job Files User PP % Blks Cp Rnk
------- ----- --------- --- ------------------ ---------- ---- -- ----- --- ---
vnagp00 hp@vn RUNNING 796 GL1090516303 gloria 604 100 5197 1 1

Based on my limited Unix experience, I can tell that this is a large job. But how large is it? And how can I tell how many pages it contains? How many remain? Thanks for your time.

If I remember correctly, lpstat -t will give you a complete
status listing of what you want.
