[K12OSN] Student Printing

[John P. Conlon]

I asked this once before but didn't get an answer.  When you print 
something from a web page the browser prints the URL across the top of 
the page.  IS it possible to set something like this up so that the 
users id is printed there from Open Office or other print capable program?
