Description of problem: It's impossible to cancel a print job waiting in a remote LPD queue, because print jobs submitted locally disappear from local queue almost instantly and CUPS doesn't show remote queue contents like for example LPRng does. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.2.10-3.fc6 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure local CUPS queue for a remote LPD (LPRng) printer 2. Submit a print job when remote printer is still printing something else Actual results: The print job disappears from local print queue almost immediately and it's impossible to cancel it, because CUPS-provided lpq doesn't support remote LPD-compatible servers. Expected results: lpq should either show the submitted job in the local queue until it is completed or lpq should show remote queue contents and allow their control, per RFC-1179. If it claims to be a lpq replacement, then it should be compatible. Additional info: I would replace CUPS with LPRng, but gtkprint is broken and doesn't show LPR printers from printcap, like libgnomeprint did.
