#!../expect -f

# This script unhangs a printer which claims it is "waiting for lock".
# Written by Don Libes.  Based on English instructions from Scott Paisley.

# lpunlock figures out if the printer is on a server, and if so which,
# by looking in the local printcap file.  (You can override this by
# supplying a server name as an additional argument.)  It then rlogins
# to the server, recreates the device and resets the queue via lpc.

# assumes user has root privs on remote host via /.rhosts

# assumes printer is name of device on remote system
