+Description: Swiss Army's knife of advanced CUPS administrators
+ Tea4CUPS is a CUPS backend wrapper which can capture print datas before they
+ are sent to a printer and process, duplicate or dispatch them in a number of
+ ways.
+ .
+ Tea4CUPS is the Swiss Army's knife of the advanced CUPS administrator, and
+ can easily replace or extend most of the existing specialized CUPS backends
+ (pdf, email, ftp, etc...).
+ .
+ You are greatly encouraged to use this software instead of writing your own
+ CUPS backends: Tea4CUPS will let you plug your own scripts, filters, tools,
+ or commands wherever you want, while giving them access to all the print
+ job's characteristics in a consistent way.
+ .
+ Tea4CUPS makes all information about the current print job, in particular the
+ job's datas and attributes, available to your own commands through environment
+ variables.
+ .
+ The possibilities are endless:
+ .
+ - Your own commands can optionally decide to discard the current print job
+ instead of printing it.
+ - Send the same job to several printers at the same time, which is not
+ possible with CUPS.
+ - Automate the PDF archiving of all print jobs.
+ - Forbid duplicate print jobs (a simple example is shown in the sample
+ configuration file).
+ - Easily create a print accounting solution.
