print parameters on windows

Hello

I've been google'ing to try to find an answer to my question but can't seem to find it.

What I want to do is to pass the email address of a user printing from the HP-UX to a printer attached to a Windows 2003. The printing is done using lp.

I can see that the printjob on windows has some parameters. fx notify, docname etc. So I want to set one of these to hold the email address.

Do you know how to solve this or if this can be done?

Thanks

NAME
lpdomatic - Foomatic filter script for LPD, LPRng, and GNUlpr SYNOPSIS
lpdomatic [OPTION]... <PPD-filename> DESCRIPTION
The lpdomatic print filter serves as an input filter for the lp family of print spoolers. The print spooler will use it if there is an entry if=/usr/sbin/lpdomatic in the appropriate printer section in /etc/printcap. You can generate such an entry using foomatic-configure. A listing of the attached printer drivers options is printed, when the option docs is passed to this filter. This can be achieved by issu- ing one of the following commands: for LPRng use echo | lpr -Z docs for other spoolers echo | lpr -J docs Options -j option (all but LPRng) Pass option to the printer driver. May also be read from the environment. -J jobtitle (LPRng only) Set the job title to jobtitle. This may be used to set a title header when printing plain text. -Z option (LPRng only) Pass option to the printer driver. SEE ALSO
