Problem Printing Headers/Footers with CUPS
Issue
We need to print a label on the top and bottom of every page or printouts. We found on option page-label that seems to do this. We can run something like this.
# lpr -o page-label=”Unclassified” <file-to-print>.txt
It does print the label at the top and bottom of every page but the problem is the label overlaps some of the contents of the file being printed.
