Printers state the languages they understand as part of their IEEE 1284 Device ID, in the CMD field. If we have access to the IEEE 1284 Device ID, AND PostScript is not listed in it, we know the printer does not support PostScript. Otherwise, it either does or might, in which case we suggest installing foomatic-db-ppds. > what if the printer is powered-off or somehow not available?? (my > printer is off most of the time) That seems like a bad time to try adding a print queue for the printer... however, in this case it assumes that the printer might support PostScript. This solution seems better than having a hard dependency in the system-config-printer package. Tim. */
