I agree with Alex, but we have other solutions that can fit to your needs. I am a java developer and always wanted to develope a printing manager based on CUPS (https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/cups.html.en) If someone(or a group) want to put this idea forward, let me know.
The main idea is to create a printing manager api to integrate with your coworking admin software.
