Occasionally we have the need to move one or more queues to another
printer (for example, when a printer needs maintenance).  If we do this
using aliases, then it will break our accounting because the value
passed to the accounting script via -P is the primary name, not the
selected queue.  That is, since we associate a quota database with a
queue name, the wrong database is selected when an alias is used.

At the moment, we get around this by creating separate queues, but this
is a bit of a nuissance.  What would be neat is if we could get the
selected queue (i.e. %Q) passed to the accounting script.  Is this
possible?


Thanks,

Chris
