AutoPurge/MaxJobsPerPrinter on a single Queue

Hi!

Is there any way to define a different "MaxJobsPerPrinter" for each queue?

I'm trying to setup Cups to retain documents from certain queues and automatically purge documents from the others.

We have 2 "type" of queue on the print server:
1)From automated applications (Such as Pay Roll)
2)User-generated

These are different printers, but the jobs are generated on the same server (running as print server). The automated jobs have to be kept for at least a month.

I've tried a couple of combinations of the "MaxJobs", "AutoPurgeJobs", "MaxJobsPerPrinter" and Quotas but I cannot get the User-generated queues empty of old re-printable jobs. It simply keeps everything up to the limit  defined by "MaxJobs" or "MaxJobsPerPrinter".

Is there something I misunderstood?
