Yes, and I actually have the PPD installed for the MP C6501SP that I'm using.  
However, the PPD doesn't seem to include all of the options - like the Document 
Server/Mailbox printer - that I need.  I don't really need these functions on 
non-Windows platforms, but I definitely need them for some of my Windows-based 
users.  If the PPD doesn't contain the options, then the functionality 
obviously won't be passed through.

Yes, Canon stuff works fine for me - no issues there.

Okay - I'll definitely try it out.

Right.
