Hi all,

We have our printers defined in eDirectory and accessibles through
ipp. I'm trying to understand whether it's possible to have a script
printing directly to one of these printers from one of my linux
machiness. The idea would be the following: a file would be created
with the name of the printer as the filename, I would have the script
build the ipp address of that printer and send it the file to be
printed.

I never had to print from my servers (installed with the minimum
installation, only cups-libs and
cups-client are present) and it's not really clear to me 1) if it's
possible without having to define the printers locally 2) how to do it

I had a look at the lpr man page but it does not seem possible to have
a kind of "lpr -p ipp://ip_address/printer_name ....".

Any pointer would be appreciated.

Kind regards,

Gaël
