What is aixPrtQueStatus?

Reports the print queue's detailed operational state: ready/running/off for a healthy virtual device that's idle, printing, or down; waiting/oprwait/init for various local stall conditions; and sending/gethost/connect/busy for a remote queue in different stages of reaching or using its foreign print server -- letting an admin distinguish a hung remote connection from a simple local queue-down.

Examples
