On the HP-UX side it looks like:

# lp -dlps /etc/passwd ; ls -l /a/request/lps ; lpstat -plps
request id is lps-18 (1 file)
total 6
-rw-r--r--   1 lp         lp               0 May 19 08:47 .remotesending
-rw-r--r--   1 root       lp              23 May 19 10:02 .sendingstatus
-r--r-----   1 lp         lp             116 May 19 13:17 cA0018hpl3ach1
-r--r-----   1 lp         lp             971 May 19 13:17 dA0018hpl3ach1
printer lps now sending lps-18 to blues.  enabled since May 19 09:25
        fence priority : 0

Have to look if I can influence the filename craetion on the HP side.
OTOH, this might break printing on the client side.
