Hi all,

Is it possible to do it using some switch? So far I wrapped append/prepend
output as follows:

if ($model ne "the model"){
    output line;
    }

But I would be happier to do it in more ellegant way. The reason to do it: the
printer (hp lj4000) has lpd queue with filter which kills all non-(pure PS)
jobs.
I need cups for another printer/scanner (hp oj 07140). 
So far the hack seems to work - I get the output as pure ps, the pinter already
preset to the correct resolution/papersize, so	PJL stuff is not neede anyway.


TIA,
Jack.
