See http://www.linuxprinting.org for information on the foomatic-rip filter and this will be incorporated into ifhp: --with-foomatic-rip=/path/too/foomatic_rip As of the next release of ifhp, you will be able to use foomatic-rip and the associated ppd files with ifhp: lp:filter=/path/to/ifhp --ppd=/path/to/ppdfile OR lp:filter=/path/to/ifhp :ppd_file=/path/to/ppdfile If you want to use only foomatic-rip, then you can use: lp:filter=/path/to/foomatic-rip --ppd=/path/to/ppdfile OR lp:filter=/path/to/foomatic-rip :ppd=/path/to/ppdfile ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- YOU MUST BE A LIST MEMBER IN ORDER TO POST TO THE LPRNG MAILING LIST The address you post from MUST be your subscription address If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body.
