linuxprinting.org printer support - prebuilt PPD files
 Foomatic is a printer database designed to make it easier to set up
 common printers for use with Debian (and other operating systems).
 It provides the "glue" between a print spooler (like CUPS or lpr) and
 your actual printer, by telling your computer how to process files
 sent to the printer.
 .
 This package provides Adobe-compliant PPD files for *every single
 printer* supported by Foomatic. Unless you want to be able to select
 your printer from the web interface of CUPS or PPR, you almost
 certainly don't want this package. Instead, you can use the
 "foomatic-configure" script in foomatic-db-engine, the "foomatic-gui"
 package, or the web interface for getting a particular PPD file at
 http://www.linuxprinting.org/printer_list.cgi
 .
 Again, you probably don't want this package unless you have a lot of
 disk space to spare and/or using the CUPS or PPR web interface to set
 up your printer queue is important to you.
