We have a user that is sending rather large print jobs to a windows printer, we need to track them down and advise a sensible approach to printing. The only thing that shows up in the windows print manager is the IP address of the source.
Is this achievable?

ftphosts(4) File Formats ftphosts(4)
NAME
ftphosts - FTP Server individual user host access file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/ftpd/ftphosts
DESCRIPTION
The ftphosts file is used to allow or deny access to accounts from specified hosts. The following access capabilities are supported:
allow username addrglob [addrglob...]
Only allow users to login as username from host(s) that match addrglob.
deny username addrglob [addrglob...]
Do not allow users to login as username from host(s) that match addrglob.
A username of * matches all users. A username of anonymous or ftp specifies the anonymous user.
addrglob is a regular expression that is matched against hostnames or IP addresses. addrglob may also be in the form address:netmask or
address/CIDR, or be the name of a file that starts with a slash ('/') and contains additional address globs. An exclamation mark (`!')
placed before the addrglob negates the test.
The first allow or deny entry in the ftphosts file that matches a username and host is used. If no entry exists for a username, then access
is allowed. Otherwise, a matching allow entry is required to permit access.
EXAMPLES
You can use the following ftphosts file to allow anonymous access from any host except those on the class A network 10, with the exception
of 10.0.0.* IP addresses, which are allowed access:
allow ftp 10.0.0.*
deny ftp 10.*.*.*
allow ftp *
10.0.0.* can be written as 10.0.0.0:255.255.255.0 or 10.0.0.0/24.
