[STR New]

Setting:
OS: Ubuntu 11.04 Client 32-bit
CUPS: 1.4.6

Steps:
1. Create a print queue using a Generic PostScript printer (en) driver
through an IPP port that points to ipp:///tmp/JOBFILE
2. After creating the queue, change the 'ipp' for the newly-created queue
to 'file'. The file is found in /etc/cups/printers.conf.
3. Restart CUPS.
4. Send a print job through commandline in this format:
     # lp -d <printerName> <file1> <file2> <file3>
     e.g. lp -d generic apdbro.pdf  motherboard.pdf multi_page_intel.txt
5. Open the JOBFILE using a text editor and search for the occurrences of
the printed files.

Expected Results:
The JOBFILE must contain the filenames of the printed files. The first
print job must bear <file1>, followed by <file2>, and lastly by <file3>

Observed Results:
The JOBFILE used the first filename as the jobname for all print jobs
sent.

Please see attached JOBFILE for the simulated results.
