lpstat: Not a request id or a destination

[Manuales]

what is the meaning of the following message?


$ lpstat Printer1.dml.kl.os
lpstat: "Printer1.dml.kl.os" not a request id or a destination

[Univer_1]

hi

ID is a request ID, as returned by lp.
dest is a printer name or class name.

check lpstat(1) manpages for more infomation.

hi
instead use "lpstat -t" for detailed listing of print id.

The lp subsystem knows nothing about IP addresses or fully qualified domain names. The list of valid printers is found with the command:

lpstat -v

HP-UX maintains printers by queue name which may or may not any similarity to the network name of a printer. The system administrator would have picked the local print queue names when the printer was added.
