I don't think you can do it using the regular Solaris print server
banner stuff. What you probably need to do is turn *off* banner
printing and employ an input filter on the queue that somehow gets the
client hostname from somewhere and makes its own banner page.
I don't know how to configure this, because I am allergic to SVR4 print
servers. (Yes, I know, they are great and mighty and very flexible,
but I never have any luck with them.)
