sending username to uniFLOW

[franz.pfoertsch.brose]

Hello Paul,

is it possible to send a preformated printjob from the cups server via lp-command like this

lp -U <YourUserid> -d followme <FileNameOfPrintjob>

if this command is working as expectet you can ask the app-developer to expand the printcommand with the userid.

this is a normal behaviour. The application is using the application user and all work is done by him.
