     35Tea4CUPS provides three ways to launch commands : 
     36 
     37        - prehooks : these are guaranteed to be launched before the  
     38                     print job is sent to the real printer. 
     39                      
     40        - tees : these are launched at the same time the job is being              
     41                 sent to the real printer. 
     42                  
     43        - posthooks : these are guaranteed to be launched after the 
     44                      print job has been sent to the real printer. 
     45                  
    3546To help your own commands, Tea4CUPS makes available as part of the 
    3647environment several variables which can be used as part of the 
     
    4960        TEAOPTIONS : Options of the print job. 
    5061        TEAINPUTFILE : Print job's data file or empty when job read from stdin. 
     62        TEASTATUS : Original CUPS backend's exit code : ONLY AVAILABLE FROM  
     63                    post hooks, obviously.
