Thank you very much for your help.

I've configured CUPS on another unix server – server2 .
Now I'm printing from server1.

lp -h server2  -d CLP09 -o scaling=100 -o media=A4  image.gif

In my opinion,  uncompressing data image.gif is executed on server2. And  data \
transfer between servers is fulfilled  in compressed mode. Am I right?
