[cups.general] PDF printing

[Per Qvindesland]

Hi

Thanks for your quick response

Their pricing is ok, this print server will be service about 1500 users
simultaneous so if we have to spend some money on it then that is just
fine.

I will have a look at the Tea4CUPS and see if it would work for us.

Kind regards
