Hi friends,

In Solaris 10 where to see print logs?

Following is the command I used to give test page.

echo "Michael Ponting - test page_New1" |lpr -P  pip-qc3-lki890

pip-qc3-lki890 is print queue name.

Please Advise.

Thanks,
Manali

The LP print service records a history of printing services in two log files, lpsched and requests. These log files are located in the /var/lp/logs directory.

Hi,

/var/lp/logs/request file showing something like this, I can not understand anything from this.

D sul_sp2_4200
F /var/spool/lp/tmp/localhost/5784-1
P 20
T standard input
t simple
U labtab1@server1
s 0x0010

all that I need to check is when i give print to print test page, it should show in logs that the print has been sent form my server which is server1.
