I must learn more about cups. I have understand.

Yes, sorry for this i don't tell you my problem.
We have a Printer Management similar cups, but this management have problem to put in the printer data stream a output tray for the printer model.

On the printer model we have 8 output trays and 2 or 3 User share one of this.
In the data stream is a line
%%Begin Feature *Output Bin None
(i don't have at the moment the secondary line)
%%End Feature

This is what i want to correct, from a sql table i get the userid, the output tray for the standard printer and whether the user gets a banner.
this is what i want to configure on cups.

Understand and I will share with the tools apart.
In the last step i would to share 500 Printers and 8 models over cups.

Thanks a lot!
