OpenPrinting printer support - Compressed PPDs derived from the database
Foomatic is a printing system designed to make it easier to set up
common printers for use with Debian (and other operating systems).
It provides the "glue" between a print spooler (like CUPS or lpr) and
your actual printer, by telling your computer how to process files
sent to the printer.
.
This package contains all PPD files which can be generated from the Foomatic
database as one small compressed archive. This reduces the disk space
consumption compared to the Foomatic XML database vastly and in addition
makes listing of all available PPDs and extracting the needed PPD much faster
than using the Foomatic XML database.
