lpstat -p and lpstat -o as sent by the
Checkmk linux agent. It lists the general state of a queue and the jobs
in the printer queue of the CUPS printing system.The check analyzes the overall state of a printer using the first words in
each line of lpstat -p. The words "is idle", "disabled since", "now printing"
trigger the resulting state.
The resulting state also depends on the number of jobs in the queue and
the age of the oldest job in the queue.
Be aware that custom parameters for jobs in
queue will be preferred. Even if e.g. "disabled since" would result in CRIT
but the length of queue is OK and vice versa.
To be able to use this check, please deploy the agent plug-in mk_cups_queues.
