Yes. What the printer actually does, depends on the "PostScript invocation values" in the PPD file. If it is a PostScript printer, it depends only on those values. If it is a non-PostScript printer, it depends on how those values are evaluated by the filtering system (i.e. which printer specific data is actually sent to the printer depending on those values). For basic information see http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:CUPS_in_a_Nutshell "PPD Files" and "The Filter" and for some details see http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Using_Your_Own_Filters_to_Print_with_CUPS "CUPS Filter System Background Information" and "Filter Activation Order" and http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Information_for_Printer_Manufacturers_Regarding_Linux_Support Kind Regards Johannes Meixner -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5 Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 90409 Nuernberg, Germany WWW: http://www.suse.de/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
