Why are you not using the cups printer drivers in the cups enviroment there

There are several "special" function of my printers (networked copiers,
actually) that need to be supported, and I don't believe the CUPS driver contains this
support. Things like sending the printout to a storage box on the copier that waits for
someone to walk up and print it (Mailbox/Document Server), duplexing, hole punching,
stapling, N-up, etc. I have not tried the CUPS printer drivers, yet, so perhaps these
features get passed through, but some of those features aren't even present in the PPD
file that I use for CUPS.
+1, generic cups drivers may not support all the features available for
a given printer.
