Remote jobs do not run my local custom filter

[Ian Ward]

HI, Printing on RedHat Enterprise 4.
I have a custom filter in /etc/cups/interfaces , it actually ftp's the printfile to another location.  The "Device" is /dev/null

When printing locally, it's fine.  Accepting remote jobs from another server however ( an AS400 ), the local interface script is not run ( I assume CUPS thinks the other guy should do his own cooking )

Is it possible to configure to allways run the local filter?  Would that be an "output" filter then?

TIA - Ian


Here you can see my first two prints were local from command prompt, the last two were remote jobs accepted from the AS400
