lpr file name on RHEL 5


When I submit a job via lpr on RHEL 5 using

lpr -P MYPRINTER filename

and then do a lpstat -t, the actual file name is not listed...just a job identifier e.g MYPRINTER-8

On AIX the lpstat command shows the actual print file name

Using -C, -J or -T options in lpr also makes no difference to waht is seen in lpstat
