Package: cupsomatic-ppd
Version: 0.20010420-4

The "Canon LBP-4U, Foomatic + cjet" driver for the Canon LBP4 laser
printer requires an executable "cjet" which does not appear to be in
Debian.

Doing a search package contents on the Debian website revealed that
apsfilter contains a file called cjet, which is NOT the file required
by the above driver. No other instances of "cjet" were found.

I was able to download the cjet source from the following URL:

  http:/www.ipd.bth.se/ska/sim_home/filer/cjet-0.89.src.tar.gz

Having compiled this and installed the executable in /usr/local/bin, I
then edited the .ppd file generated in /etc/cups/ppd as follows:

Old:

*% COMDATA #  'cmd' => 'gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=ljet3%A%Z 
-sOutputFile=- - | cjet -q%C',

New:

*% COMDATA #  'cmd' => 'gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=ljet3%A%Z 
-sOutputFile=- - | /usr/local/bin/cjet -q%C',

(This line seems only to be in the .ppd file installed in
/etc/cups/ppd; it's not in /usr/share/cups/model/Canon/LBP-4U-cjet.ppd)

The driver now works.

The cjet package is now available in Debian, so this report can be closed.
