<dt>ATTR: attribute=value [attribute=value]</dt>
<dd>Sets the named printer or job attribute(s). Typically this is used
to set the <code>marker-colors</code>, <code>marker-levels</code>,
- <code>marker-names</code>, <code>marker-types</code>,
- <code>printer-alert</code>, and <code>printer-alert-description</code>
- printer attributes. Standard <code>marker-types</code> values are

<dt>CRIT: message</dt>
<dd>Sets the printer-state-message attribute and adds the specified
function returns the device URI passed in the DEVICE_URI environment
variable or the device URI passed in argv[0], whichever is found
first.</p>
