+<samba:parameter name="lpq cache time"
+ context="G"
+ type="integer"
+ developer="1"
+ xmlns:samba="http://samba.org/common">
+<description>
+ <para>This controls how long lpq info will be cached
+ for to prevent the <command moreinfo="none">lpq</command> command being called too
+ often. A separate cache is kept for each variation of the <command moreinfo="none">
+ lpq</command> command used by the system, so if you use different
+ <command moreinfo="none">lpq</command> commands for different users then they won't
+ share cache information.</para>
+
+ <para>The cache files are stored in <filename moreinfo="none">/tmp/lpq.xxxx</filename>
+ where xxxx is a hash of the <command moreinfo="none">lpq</command> command in use.</para>
+
+ <para>The default is 10 seconds, meaning that the cached results
+ of a previous identical <command moreinfo="none">lpq</command> command will be used
+ if the cached data is less than 10 seconds old. A large value may
+ be advisable if your <command moreinfo="none">lpq</command> command is very slow.</para>
+
+<para>A value of 0 will disable caching completely.</para>
