3. Information about the OpenPrintingPPDs package on openSUSE Leap

Information for package OpenPrintingPPDs:
-----------------------------------------
Repository : Main Repository
Name : OpenPrintingPPDs
Version : 4.0.0.2-1.33
Arch : noarch
Vendor : SUSE LLC
Installed Size : 42.1 KiB
Installed : No
Status : not installed
Source package : OpenPrintingPPDs-4.0.0.2-1.33.src
Upstream URL : http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/database/query
Summary : PPD files from OpenPrinting.org
Description :
To set up a printer configuration a printer description file
(PPD file) is required.
A printer description file is not a driver.
For non-PostScript printers a driver is needed
together with a PPD file which matches exactly
to the particular driver.
For PostScript printers, a PPD file alone is sufficient
(except for older PostScript level 1 printer models).
The PPD files are provided in the following sub-packages
depending on which kind of driver software is needed:
OpenPrintingPPDs-ghostscript provides PPDs
which use Ghostscript built-in drivers.
OpenPrintingPPDs-hpijs provides PPDs
which use the hpijs driver from HPLIP.
OpenPrintingPPDs-postscript provides PPDs
which need no driver.
