+<title>CUPS as a network PostScript RIP -- CUPS drivers working on server, Adobe
+PostScript driver with CUPS-PPDs downloaded to clients</title>
+
+
+<para>
+CUPS is perfectly able to use PPD files (PostScript
+Printer Descriptions). PPDs can control all print device options. They
+are usually provided by the manufacturer -- if you own a PostSript printer,
+that is. PPD files are always a component of PostScript printer drivers on MS
+Windows or Apple Mac OS systems. They are ASCII files containing
+user-selectable print options, mapped to appropriate PostScript, PCL or PJL
+commands for the target printer. Printer driver GUI dialogs translate these
+options "on-the-fly" into buttons and drop-down lists for the user to
+select.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+CUPS can load, without any conversions, the PPD file from
+any Windows (NT is recommended) PostScript driver and handle the options.
+There is a web browser interface to the print options (select
+http://localhost:631/printers/ and click on one "Configure Printer" button
+to see it), a commandline interface (see <command>man lpoptions</command> or
+try if you have <command>lphelp</command> on your system) plus some different GUI frontends on Linux
+UNIX, which can present PPD options to the users. PPD options are normally
+meant to become evaluated by the PostScript RIP on the real PostScript
+printer.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+CUPS doesn't stop at "real" PostScript printers in its
+usage of PPDs. The CUPS developers have extended the PPD concept, to also
+describe available device and driver options for non-PostScript printers
+through CUPS-PPDs.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+This is logical, as CUPS includes a fully featured
+PostScript interpreter (RIP). This RIP is based on Ghostscript. It can
+process all received PostScript (and additionally many other file formats)
+from clients. All CUPS-PPDs geared to non-PostScript printers contain an
+additional line, starting with the keyword <parameter>*cupsFilter</parameter>.
+This line
+tells the CUPS print system which printer-specific filter to use for the
+interpretation of the accompanying PostScript. Thus CUPS lets all its
+printers appear as PostScript devices to its clients, because it can act as a
+PostScript RIP for those printers, processing the received PostScript code
+into a proper raster print format.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+CUPS-PPDs can also be used on Windows-Clients, on top of a
+PostScript driver (recommended is the Adobe one).

+<title>Windows Terminal Servers (WTS) as CUPS clients</title>
+
+<para>
+This setup may be of special interest to people
+experiencing major problems in WTS environments. WTS need often a multitude
+of non-PostScript drivers installed to run their clients' variety of
+different printer models. This often imposes the price of much increased
+instability. In many cases, in an attempt to overcome this problem, site
+administrators have resorted to restrict the allowed drivers installed on
+their WTS to one generic PCL- and one PostScript driver. This however
+restricts the clients in the amount of printer options available for them --
+often they can't get out more then simplex prints from one standard paper
+tray, while their devices could do much better, if driven by a different
+driver!
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Using an Adobe PostScript driver, enabled with a CUPS-PPD,
+seems to be a very elegant way to overcome all these shortcomings. The
+PostScript driver is not known to cause major stability problems on WTS (even
+if used with many different PPDs). The clients will be able to (again) chose
+paper trays, duplex printing and other settings. However, there is a certain
+price for this too: a CUPS server acting as a PostScript RIP for its clients
+requires more CPU and RAM than just to act as a "raw spooling" device. Plus,
+this setup is not yet widely tested, although the first feedbacks look very
+promising...

+working different from the other drivers. While the other drivers take the

+their input, cupsomatic "kidnaps" the PostScript inside CUPS, before
+RIP-ping, deviates it to an external Ghostscript installation (which now
+becomes the RIP) and gives it back to a CUPS backend once Ghostscript is
+finished. -- CUPS versions from 1.1.15 and later will provide their pstoraster
+PostScript RIP function again inside a system-wide Ghostscript
+installation rather than in "their own" pstoraster filter. (This
+CUPS-enabling Ghostscript version may be installed either as a
+patch to GNU or AFPL Ghostscript, or as a complete ESP Ghostscript package).
+However, this will not change the cupsomatic approach of guiding the printjob
+along a different path through the filtering system than the standard CUPS
