Job status feedback

Client workstations display fault messages and additional
information, such as the status of feeder trays and output bins. If
properly configured, the workstations may be able to display job
status, as shown below.

To determine the status of jobs submitted using the lpr command,
you must issue an lpq command at the command line. Some
application software packages may provide a simplified means of
obtaining job status, perhaps using icons.
