8 Once upon a time I have linux server with monitor and printer attached,
9 which stood in the corner of room. I thought that it is desirable to be
10 able to control printer jobs from the server console, without need to
11 run to some workstation if paper jammed.
13 So, I wrote this program which uses standard <b>lpq</b>, <b>lpc</b> and
14 <b>lprm</b> utilities and provides full-screen interface. It has some
15 provisions against allowing user access to anything but printer queues.
