Hello cups-list,


i would like to use cups as a document archiver.
for my own backend i need the IP of the client that sends the
printjob, but it seems like only these parameters are given:
$job,$user,$title,$copies,$options,$filename
is it possible to patch cups to add a $IP parameter there?
if this is not possible, perhaps someone has an idea how this could be
done?
i thought about parsing the logs, but in accesslog is no filename and
the pagelog has no IP. only the username is in both logs, but this
aint really a uniq comparefactor.

thx
