cups-genppdconfig.5.08
A user-friendly interface to generate gutenprint ppd files for use with cups
Usage
cups-genppdconfig [-d
ppd_directory]
update-cups-genppd [-d
pdd_directory]
Overview
cups-genppdconfig generates Gutenprint PPD files for use with CUPS. The program allows the selection of the base directory to create the PPDs in, and the printers and languages desired. The default settings are taken from the contents of the base directory. Note that unselecting an item will not remove it from the disk; you must remove unwanted printers and languages by deleting the files and directories respectively.
If dialog is installed, it will be used to create the user interface, using colour, 3D-look dialog boxes etc. If dialog cannot be found, perlmenu will be used instead to create a simpler, though functionally identical, interface.
Options
-
-d ppd-directory -
Use ppd-directory as the base directory to create PPD files in. The default printer and language selections will also be obtained from this directory. By default, the base directory is /usr/share/cups/model/gutenprint.
