print/foomatic4-filters - The NetBSD Packages Collection

Spooler-independent PostScript printing filter

The foomatic-filters package provides foomatic-rip and foomatic-gswrapper.

foomatic-rip uses an external renderer (like GhostScript) to translate
PostScript to printer's native language. The printer capabilities are
described in PPD files.  foomatic-rip works with every known spooler.

foomatic-gswrapper massages arguments to make Ghostscript execute
properly as a filter.
