NAME

       ijsgutenprint - Ghostscript driver for Gutenprint

SYNOPSIS

       gs  -sDEVICE=ijs  -sIjsServer=/usr/bin/ijsgutenprint  -sDeviceManufacturer=vendor  -sDeviceModel=name  [  -dIjsUseOutputFD  ] -sIjsParams=[
       key1=value1,keyn=valuen... ] [ options ] [ files ]

DESCRIPTION

       ijsgutenprint provides Ghostscript with a Gutenprint driver, supporting all printers supported by libgutenprint.

       NOTE: ijsgutenprint should never be called directly.  Ghostscript will run it if the IjsServer parameter is set to  IjsServer=ijsgutenprint
       when invoking the IJS driver.

       NOTE:  The  only supported method of running ijsgutenprint is via Foomatic.  Users running ghostscript directly will not be supported.  The
       driver name used by Foomatic is gutenprint-ijs.5.2.

OPTIONS

       ijsgutenprint accepts the following Ghostscript IJS options.  The Gutenprint-specific options are not documented here.

       -dIjsUseOutputFD
	      This option should be specified whenever output from Ghostscript will go to stdout or into a pipe.  It may be specified in all other
	      cases, with only a slight performance degradation.

       -sIjsParams=Option1=Value1,Option2=Value2
	      This parameter contains a single string containing a comma-separated list of sub-options.

       -sDeviceManufacturer=vendor -sDeviceModel=name
	      This  option  must  be  supplied.   There  is  no  default.  The IJS driver requires the vendor (it's part of the protocol), but the
	      ijsgutenprint driver ignores it.

HISTORY

       The Ghostscript stp driver was originally written by Henryk Richter (buggs@comlab.uni-rostock.de), and was integrated into Gutenprint  dur-
       ing  the  3.1  development  series.   Gutenprint (which was named Gimp-Print prior to release 5.0) itself was originally written by Michael
       Sweet <mike@easysw.com>, who released  up  to  version  2.0;  Robert  Krawitz  released	version  3.0.	The  Gutenprint  development  team
       (http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net) now maintains the entire package.

       The  IJS  driver  was  originally written by Russell Lang, and incorporated into Gutenprint (known then as Gimp-Print) in early 2002.  This
       driver corresponds with the IJS protocol 0.32.

       The stp driver is no longer supported as of Gutenprint 5.0.

NAME

       cups-genppd - generate Gutenprint PPD files for use with CUPS

SYNOPSIS

       cups-genppd [-c localedir] [-l locale] [-p prefix] [-q] [-v] model1 [model2, ...modeln]
       cups-genppd -L [-c localedir]
       cups-genppd -M [-v]
       cups-genppd -h
       cups-genppd -V

DESCRIPTION

       cups-genppd  generates  Gutenprint PPD files for use with CUPS.	The default behavior is to output PPD files for all models of printer that
       the Gutenprint printer driver library supports.	You may restrict the models by listing either the driver names or the full  names  of  the
       printers  you  wish to generate PPD files for after any options.  Additionally, the PPD files may be localised, that is, translated, to use
       your native language rather than US English.  There are commands to find out what printer models and languages are supported.

EXAMPLES

       cups-genppd -v bjc-6200 'Epson Stylus Photo 1280' 'HP DeskJet 850C'
	      verbosely generate three PPD files, listing the driver name in the first case, and the full name in the second.

       LANG=de_DE genppd -p ppd -c /usr/share/locale
	      generate PPDs for all available models, in directory ppd using the locale data found under /usr/share/locale.  The language  to  use
	      is taken from the environment (de_DE).

       cups-genppd -L -c /usr/local/share/locale
	      list available languages using the locale data found under /usr/local/share/locale.

       cups-genppd -M -v
	      list available drivers, with long model descriptions

COMMANDS

       -h     show a help message

       -L     list  available  translations (message catalogs).  If a locale is used for which there is not a corresponding translation, then then
	      US English will be used.

       -M     list available printer models.  By default, only driver names are listed; if verbose mode is used, the full model name will also	be
	      printed

       -V     show version information and defaults

	      The default behavior is to output PPDs if no command is given.

OPTIONS

       -c localedir
	      use localedir as the base directory for locale data

       -l locale
	      output  PPDs  translated	with  messages	for locale.  Note that locale must be a locale as shown by locale -a.  For example, the de
	      translation is used by the de_DE locale; de alone will not work.

       -p prefix
	      output PPDs in directory prefix.	Directories are not recursively created.

       -q     Quiet mode.

       -v     Verbose mode.

       models a list of printer models, either the driver or quoted full name.
