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, such as through the use of icons.
