Question on using stty correctly

1) The documentation for the stty command does not clarify how to get
the switch information from a particular device. For example, if I have
a device called /dev/hp1 what command line could I use to get the baud
rate, line control,etc from this device?
2) Does the security mechanism override the setting of these switches.
For example, if the dev/hp1 owner is root with world rw priveledges, can
I set the switches (assuming I am not root).
3) I would like to pipe the output of the stty command to a line
printer. Any suggestions (stty -a | lpr doesn't work).
Your help would be much appreciated. Please reply to my email id since I
monitor this much greater than the news network.
Best Regards,
Gary Betz
