print spoolers

[Philip Hall]

Sorry if this question has been asked before, but we only got on the net about 
a month ago.
We are developing an application that keeps the user from ever getting access 
to the UNIX system directly. The user can request  to run a report 
and direct the output to any of several destinations.
1) on a spooler printer (going through the lp system)
2) on an attached printer (attached to the terminal)
3) sent to a file.
4) queued for night running.
Some reports can be as much as 20mb in size. We obviously don't want that size
job going to a dot matrix printer (which is the normal spooler type printer.
What we need, is if the job is going to the spooling system, to 
redirect it to a laser printer if the size of the job exceeds a specific limit.
We are currently running on an Amdahl using UTS 1.2.3 (soon upgrading to
UTS 2.0, the equivalent of system V release 3.1).
if anyone has any suggestions on how to solve this problem, please email
them directly to me.
Thanks in advance.
