-CUPS provides a portable printing layer for UNIX-based operating
-systems. It has been developed by Easy Software Products to promote a
-standard printing solution for all UNIX vendors and users. CUPS
-provides the System V and Berkeley command-line interfaces.
-
-CUPS uses the Internet Printing Protocol ("IPP") as the basis for
-managing print jobs and queues. The Line Printer Daemon ("LPD") Server
-Message Block ("SMB"), and AppSocket (a.k.a. JetDirect) protocols are
-also supported with reduced functionality. CUPS adds network printer
-browsing and PostScript Printer Description ("PPD") based printing
-options to support real-world printing under UNIX.
-
-CUPS also includes a customized version of GNU Ghostscript (currently
-based off GNU Ghostscript 5.50) and an image file RIP that are used to
-support non-PostScript printers. Sample drivers for HP and EPSON
-printers are included that use these filters.
