timestamp of last print job sent to a printer

[John Jimenez]

The application we run on top of the O/S (hp UX 11.11) has a 2 digit naming limitation plus start with either an "l" or "p". I am close to using all the combinations up.

Does anyone know of a way to figure out what printers are not being used on UNIX? Something that will show me when the last time something was sent to it?

I did find this in "hppi" that might work

Check files in following dirs.

/var/spool/lp
And log file.

Thanks,
This file worked great.
Luckily I had not made any printer changes lately and my /var/adm/lp/log went back to January. I was able to see which printer had not been used since then.
