Hi there,
What calls do I need to use to determine the status of the LaserWriter
queue such as number of active jobs in the queue, names of jobs, etc.
Can I get the same kind of information for a remote printer on the network
by using its Net number Node number and socket Number?

Also is there a way to manage a LaserWriter remotely such as shut it off or
on or change its configuration characteristics?

thanks
george domenikos
