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. rig

Could the page-label option be what you are looking for? It causes the
label string
to be inserted both at the top and the bottom of each printed page.

If you are looking for something fancier, you might get the alternate
pstops filter
from the CUPS site's link list and hack your custimized page label
routine.
