-When sending jobs via lpr to Xerox using ipp configured in cups we see -T as job name and -U as owner:
+We would like to have nice job name and user info on Xerox, so I tested how to send data
+using various protocols:

-When sending jobs directly to printer using rlpr we see different flags:

+And results are *VERY* different:

+So, it seems that we can't tranfer job name or owner through caps and socket connection.
