I think if you add the following code:
Code:
    :filter=/mydir/filter/myfilter

at line 9 of the printcap file.


Then create a /mydir/filter/myfilter script in sh/ksh
Code:
save="N"
while read line
do
     if [ "$save" = "N" ]
     then
         m=`echo $line|cut -c1-6`
         if [ "a$m" = "aManual" ]
        then
            save="Y"
       fi
   fi
if [ "$save" = "Y" ]
then
    echo "$line"
fi
done

NAME

       gnome-session-save - saves or terminates the current GNOME session

SYNOPSIS

       gnome-session-save [--gui] [--kill] [--session-name=name] [--silent] [gnome-std-options]

DESCRIPTION

       gnome-session-save  can	be  used from a GNOME session to save a snapshot of the currently running applications. This session will be later
       restored at your next GNOME startup session.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       --gui

	   If specified, then any errors will be displayed in a dialog box.  Otherwise, such messages are displayed to	stderr.   Note	that  this
	   option has no affect any dialogs that the window manager might display.

       --kill

	   Terminates  the  GNOME session.  The session will not be saved if this option is provided, unless the user has configured their session
	   to always save on logout.

       -s, --session-name=name

	   Set name of session to save.

       --silent

	   Avoids displaying any confirmation or dialogs, including ones that are displayed by the window manager (such as dialogs  informing  the
	   user about any windows that cannot save session, or session logout confirmation when the --kill option is also used).

       gnome-std-options

	   Standard options available for use with most GNOME applications.  See gnome-std-options(5) for more information.
