Use LISTPTR when you want information about printers. For each printer the report lists:
Printer type
Form queues assigned
Number of blank pages ejected between print jobs
The device number or the number of the line to which the printer is attached
The current status of the printer: ACTIVE, INACTIVE, or STOPPED
The LISTPTR command produces a report that looks like the one shown in the following example.
