# Chapter 1. Introduction

Klpq is a frontend to the print spooler. Its primary purpose is displaying the print queue and removing jobs from the queue. But you can even disable/ enable printing or move jobs to the top of the queue, if you have the necessary access permissions.

Klpq does not modify the printqueue by itself, but uses the underlying commands: lpq, lprm and lpc. For this reason klpq should be safe as long as lpq, lprm and lpc are safe.

- supports BSD, PPR and LPRng spooling systems

- network transparency

- supports DRAG&DROP
