Hi there,we are using Fedora Linux as a cups server for OS X student laptops (currently 220 or so).   We are interested in tacking the IP address, mac address or host name on each page printed through the Cups server.  We really are not looking for a separate banner page as we are trying to cut down on paper\ink usage.  We have the linux machine set up with the driver and are using raw on the OS X machines.  The printing works fine and we do have the logs, but we would like to have the info. right on the sheet so that students might think twice before hitting print.

Any help or information on how or if this can be done would be great.

Thanks in advance,
