[cups] How to call a script when a job arrives

Hi,

I have a network printer that can be turned on by doing a certain curl
call, and would like CUPS to turn the printer on automatically when a
print job for this printer arrives.

Must I do this in a filter or is there a more elegant place for this?
How and where would I specify a filter that is used for all jobs for a
certain printer?

Greetings
Marc
