No... not in the general case. There are a variety of network printing protocols out there... and the ability to query the end device will vary.

Btw, Windows can't do this either... so if you disagree, then I suggest you really don't have a general case, but something more specific.

NAME
psmerge - filter to merge several PostScript files into one SYNOPSIS
psmerge [ -oout.ps ] [ file.ps ... ] DESCRIPTION
Psmerge merges PostScript documents into a single document. It only works in the specific case the the files were created using the same application, with the same device setup and resources (fonts, procsets, patterns, files, etc) loaded. If the -o option is used, output will be sent to the file named, otherwise it will go to standard output. Psmerge will merge multiple files concatenated into a single file as if they were in separate files. AUTHOR
