Sequential; Fail-Safe Printing

[John P]

We use CUPS in a mode where there are 4 Linux servers hosting text-based terminal emulation and text-based printing is done via a single CUPS server.  Although this CUPS server has redundant hardware components, it remains our single-point-of-failure.  If we upgraded to the mission-critical/enterprise software would it support the following scenario:

1) Document Number 1234 is sent to CUPS server A with a destination of PRINTER_17.

2) Document Number 1235 is sent to CUPS server B with a destination of PRINTER_17 also.

I need some way to guarantee that document 1234 prints before document 1235 no matter the load on the two CUPS servers.  This is very similar to printing checks where the document output contains a number that must match the pre-printed number on the paper stock.

Can this be handled by any of the current ESP products?
