Is there an option to print the job class in the page headers in RHEL?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • On Unix platforms, the user is able to pass the "class" option to printer using below command:

    lpr -P <PRINT_QUEUE_NAME> -C CN_SEPARATOR.pdf,cover <FILE_NAME>
    

    the "-C" option in Unix passes the class option to the printer, is there equivalent option on Linux?

  • After Migrating from Solaris to Linux, our print jobs are not printing banner pages properly. Please find the difference in printing banner between Solaris and Linux.

Environment

  • Common Unix Printing System (CUPS)
