The CUPS web interface basically uses lpinfo to get lists of PPDs for the printer models. Which is why there was nothing there to be selected for the PDF printer. Very strange. > I used /usr/share/ppd/cups-pdf/CUPS-PDF_opt.ppd > > The other file there (noopt instead of opt) works as well. /usr/share/ppd/ should contain at least cups-pdf, cupsfilters and custom directories. The cupsfilters directory should have six files in it. If you do 'lpinfo -m | less' and search for any of these files, do you find them? (Check, as root, that the timestamp of /var/cache/cups/ppds.dat has changed after using lpinfo). Cheers, Brian.
