Description: printer drivers for CUPS
This package includes a CUPS driver based on Gutenprint.
.
The CUPS drivers contain all of the files needed to support
photo-quality printing on any printer supported by Gutenprint. You
can find out more about the Common UNIX Printing System ("CUPS"), an
IPP-based printing system for UNIX/Linux, at:
.
http://www.cups.org
.
Gutenprint is the print facility for the GIMP, and in addition a
suite of drivers that may be used with common UNIX spooling systems
using GhostScript or CUPS. These drivers provide printing quality
for UNIX/Linux on a par with proprietary vendor-supplied drivers in
many cases, and can be used for many of the most demanding printing
tasks. Gutenprint was formerly known as Gimp-Print.
