Description

shows information about the specified print jobs.

Options

-S server

connects to the specified print server host. The server can be specified either by hostname or IP address. If this option is not used and there is no host name given using the -P option the program tries to find a default print host in the following places:
the " PRINTHOST " environment variable,
the "/yalc/print-host" user preference
the "/print-host" registry entry in HKCU/Software/DKrause/Yalc
the "/yalc/print-host" system preference

the " NGPRINTER ", " NPRINTER ", " LPDEST " and " PRINTER " environment variables,
the "/yalc/default-printer" user preference,
the "/default-printer" registry entry in HKCU/Software/DKrause/Yanolc,
the "/yalc/default-printer" system preference,
the "/default-printer" registry entry in HKLM/Software/DKrause/Yanolc.
If the queue name doest not contain a host information, the print server host information is retrieved from the -S option.
