Hello, A question regarding faxing without hp-sendfax:
Currently I can send a PostScript file as fax directly via hp-sendfax -n -f 12345 -p fax-queue-name file.ps Shouldn't it be possible to do the same with plain "lp" command via specifying the fax number as special print job option, e.g. lp -d fax-queue-name -o HplipFaxNumber=12345 Because all filters and the hpfax backend get all job options, the hpfax backend might call hp-sendfax to actually send it? If this is possible, I would even suggest to check additionally the job title if it contains a sub-string of the form "HplipFaxNumber=12345" (of course only if no HplipFaxNumber job option was already specified) because via the job title even old-style LPD based printing systems (which cannot set job options like "-o HplipFaxNumber=12345") could specify the fax number at least via the job title. What do you think?
