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.
That seems like a bad time to try adding a print queue for the

support PostScript.
This solution seems better than having a hard dependency in the
system-config-printer package.
