* data-generators/hpijs-rss/*: Added support for HPIJS patched by
Matthias Bunte and Richard Spencer-Smith (see
http://www.linuxprinting.org/download/printing/hpijs/). The
driver entry name is "hpijs-rss".
* data-generators/hpijs/hpijs-generator: Mentioned that the
current Foomatic data is also for HPIJS 1.2.2.
* data-generators/hpijs/hpijs-printermap, db/source/printer/*:
Added the HP DeskJet 450, 3320, 6122, 6127, PhotoSmart P230, PSC
2150.
* data-generators/hpijs*/hpijs*-generator: Corrected "Best
Grayscale" modes for the HP DeskJet 350, 6xxC series, and the
Apollo printers, the mode supports only 600x300 (not 300x300)
dpi and all except the DeskJet 350 and the 63xC series use
both and not only the black cartridge.
* db/source/printer/*: Changed recommended driver to "hpijs-rss"
when it was "hpijs" before (the patched version has better
output quality).
* db/source/printer/*: Raised ratings of all "DJ9xx"-class HP
inkjets without fax facility from "Mostly" to
"Perfectly". Updated the texts of all "DJ9xx"-class models
(because of the patched HPIJS, "hpijs-rss").

tutorial chapter about PostScript to the text of the
"Postscript" driver entry.
2002-09-27 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* src/cupsomatic.pl.in: Made command line option list only be
logged in debug mode. Mac OS X adds very many options to the
CUPS filter chain and so the option list gets longer than 1024
bytes and this CUPS cannot handle in its error_log file.
2002-09-26 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/driver/Postscript.xml: Updated text for new PPD file
download place.
2002-09-11 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* data-generators/hpijs/hpijs-generator: The 300-dpi normal mode
for the "LJMono" device class uses 600 dpi internally and so
does not work on the 300-dpi-only printers as the HP LaserJet 4L.
Restricted these printers to use the 300-dpi draft mode which
does real 300 dpi.
2002-08-31 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/opt/*, db/source/driver/pnm2ppa.xml: Cleaned up
options for the "pnm2ppa" driver.

2002-08-24 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* src/cupsomatic.pl.in, src/directomatic.pl.in, src/lpdomatic.pl.in:
Now option settings stuffed into the PPD files have priority
against settings done via command line options given with the
printing command. This is done to make sure that settings given
in applications (also on clients with other spooler/OS) have are
taken into account.
* src/cupsomatic.pl.in: Numerical options give on the command line
and not being exactly of a value given as choice in the
PPD-O-Matic PPD file are now overriding the PPD defaults which
"pstops" inserts into the PostScript, but they are overridden
when an application stuffs settings into the PostScript file.

2002-08-12 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* Makefile.in: In the "inplace" mode the line "use lib/;" and not
"use lib/Foomatic/;" must be inserted to make the scripts using
the Foomatic libraries from the source tree and not the system-
wide ones.
2002-08-10 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* data-generators/hpijs/hpijs-generator: Given the short name
"Resolution" to the "Quality, MediaType, Ink Type" option,
so it gets accessable in the GIMP.

* db/source/driver/*: Corrected URLs of the drivers which come with
GhostScript (GNU GhostScript 7.05 instead of 6.51).
2002-05-23 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/*: Fixed URLs in several printer entries
(added missing "http://").

2002-05-16 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/Lexmark-Z13.xml: Added the Lexmark Z13 to the
printer database.
* db/source/*/*: Fixed HPIJS data for the HP DeskJet 825C/845C: they
do grayscale with the black cartridge and not with the color
cartridge.
2002-05-15 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-preferred-driver.in: Updated driver priority list to
give higher priority to the old HP LaserJet/PCL drivers coming
with GhostScript than to Gimp-Print. The old drivers work better
on laser printers.
* db/source/printer/*: Use the old GhostScript driers ("ljet4",
"laserjet", ...) instead of "gimp-print-ijs" as recommended
driver for laser printers.
2002-05-11 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-preferred-driver.in: Updated driver priority list.
* db/source/printer/*: Use "gimp-print-ijs" as recommended driver
where "gimp-print" was the recommended driver before.
* db/source/driver/lm1100.xml: Added hint how to compile it with
gcc 3.1 to the description text.
2002-05-10 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>

driver entry to be 1.1.
2002-05-09 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/*/*: Added HP Business Inkjet 2230 and 2280 printers.
* db/source/*/*: Updated HPIJS driver entries to version 1.1.
* db/source/printer/HP-PhotoSmart_P100.xml: Raised the HP PhotoSmart

560C, Olivetti JP450, DEC DECwriter 110i.
2002-05-05 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Let paper size also be read from
"-dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=..."/"-dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=...", needed for
"gimp-print-ijs" and "hpijs" drivers.
2002-04-22 Manfred Wassmann <manolo@NCC-1701.B.Shuttle.de>
* foomatic-perl-data.1.in: Created basic manpage for
foomatic-perl-data.
2002-04-18 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added some more paper sizes to the
"getpapersize()" function, according to DeviceForm.cpp on the OMNI
CVS.
2002-04-17 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/*/*: Corrected "hpijs" entry for the HP 2500C/2500CN,
they belong to the "DJ9xxVIP" group (as the HP DeskJet 990C), so
they work perfectly with "hpijs". Replaced model string "HP
BUSINESS INKJET 2250" by "DESKJET 990", the former string is
not recognized by "hpijs" (in contrary to the driver's
documentation).
* db/source/*/*: Added the Sony IJP-V100 multi-function device.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added '*PSVersion: "(3010.000) 653"' entry
for GhostScript 6.53 to the PPD files. In the "getpapersize()"
function let the ISO B sizes be returned, when the paper size
name is only "Bx" without "JIS" or "ISO". This is also the
default of GhostScript.
* Makefile.in: Fixed bug of database going to
/usr/local/share/share/foomatic.
* foomatic-configure.in: Made "foomatic-configure -Q -q -r"
working correctly with CUPS 1.1.14.
* Makefile.in, makeDefaults.in, configure.in, lib/Foomatic/DB.pm:
Eliminated dependency on the "libwww-perl" Perl library, used
command line tools "wget" or "curl" instead. Now Foomatic should
work only with standard Perl libraries as being part of Perl
itself.
* USAGE, README: Added the requirement of one of the tools "wget"
and "curl".
* db/source/driver/gdi.xml: Updates URLs.
2002-04-16 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>

unless the "-f" ("force") switch is used, improved screen
output, "CVS" subdirectories in the kit get ignored.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: In the "getexecdocs()" function apply the
"htmlify()" to all strings which are shown on the web page.
Added paper sizes for the "omni" driver to the
"getpapersizes()" function.
2002-04-15 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>

script, now one can easily install Foomatic with the well-known
"./configure; make; make install".
2002-04-12 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-ppdload: Switched foomatic-ppdload to the new
Perl-XML/Grove-free DB.pm.
* foomatic-ppdload, foomatic-ppdload.8.in: Added "-R" option to
remove a printer from the "ppd" driver.
* README: Removed paragraph that foomatic-ppdload needs the old
Perl-XML/Grove DB.pm.
* lib/Foomatic/PPD.pm: Let the "PageRegion" option in the PPD file
being skipped when creating Foomatic XML data. It is te same
option as "PageSize".
* db/source/driver/Postscript.xml: Corrected HTML tags.
2002-04-10 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-perl-data.c: Added reading of auto-detection data also
for the USB and SNMP connection types. Added support for returning
commants and texts in other languages the english ("-l <language>"
command line option).
* db/source/printer/HP-PSC_750.xml: Added USB auto-detection info.
2002-04-09 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Made the "sortargs()" and "sortvals()"
functions working with Perl 5.0x. The "sort()" function of these
old Perl versions only supports the two items to compare being
given to the copmaring function via the global variables "$a"
and "$b", and not via "@_". linuxprinting.org runs Perl 5.005.
Made also the choices for the options better sorted, especially
Letter/A4 paper sizes in the beginning of the list, resolutions
and "Upper"/"Middle"/"Lower" trays correctly sorted, "Default"
in the beginning of the lists.
2002-04-08 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-perl-data.c: New C program to parse the XML code to
generate Perl data structures from it. Uses libxml (libxml 2.x
recommended because otherwise XML files beginning with a blank
line cannot be read).
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Removed disk cache and XML/Grove Perl
library usage completely, all XML handling is done by C code
now. Added paper sizes of the Dymo-CoStar/Avery label printers
to the "getpapersize()" function, now the "ImageableArea" and
"PaperDimension" entries in the PPD files are built correctly
for these printers. Added possibility to output a combo XML file
with the option default settings set to the values of the queue
currently worked on.
* lib/Foomatic/DB_perl_xml.pm: Stored old XML/Grove/disk cache
version of the Foomatic database library. Added documentation
for this file as comments in its beginning.
* foomatic-configure, foomatic-printjob: Removed "grove-pathval"
expression from "use Foomatic::DB.pm" line.
* foomatic-configure: When a printer queue is set up or modified,
the option default settings are also set in the
/etc/foomatic/<queue>.xml.gz printer/driver combo XML file. So
frontends can also read the option settings from the XML file.
* foomatic-ppdload: Re-linked to old lib/Foomatic/DB_perl_xml.pm,
Perl-XML/Grove-free version not implemented yet.
* foomatic-compiledb, foomatic-compiledb.8.in,
foomatic-compiledb.1.in: In the cache-less time this has a new
purpose: It generates data files for a chosen spooler (or combo
XML files) and for either selected or all drivers. Moved man
page to section 1, foomatic-compiledb works from a normal user
account now (due to the removed cache).
* foomatic-datafile.8.in, foomatic-datafile.1.in: Moved man
page to section 1, foomatic-datafile works from a normal user
account now (due to the removed cache).
* foomatic-fix-xml: Remove leading blank lines from the XML files
in the local Foomatic database. The leading blank lines make the
XML files not readable by libxml 1.x.
* Makefile: Added compilation and installation of
foomatic-perl-data.c.
* Makefile, makeDefault: Commented out all cache-related stuff.
* Makefile: Moved foomatic-datafile and foomatic-compiledb from
/usr/sbin to /usr/bin.
* README, USAGE: Foomatic version 1.9 (Foomatic without
Perl-XML/Grove and without disk cache).
* db/source/*/*: Replaced all occurences of a cross character
(used in resolutions as "600x300 dpi") by an "x" (the letter
"X"). libxml chokes on the cross. Removed leading blank lines
from the XML files, because this breaks libxml 1.x.
2002-04-03 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added new paper sizes of Gimp-Print to the
paper size table of the "getpapersize" function, fixed a bug of
wrong calculation of "wXXXhYYY" and "XXXxYYY" paper sizes in the
same function.
2002-03-29 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* src/ppromatic.pl: Made ppromatic also working in non-english
configurations.

2002-03-24 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/HP-LaserJet_12?0.xml: LaserJet 1200/1220 is
very slow in graphics, added user report.
2002-03-21 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/*: Updated text of all HP printers and
multi-function devices which need HPOJ or the modified printer.c
kernel module to be able to print via USB.
* db/source/printer/*: Updated text of the HP PhotoSmart 1[012]xx
printers because they need the modified USB printer.c kernel
module from the HPOJ website to work together with HPOJ.
* db/source/*/*: Added the Okidata OL400e, HP OfficeJet D125, and
HP LaserJet 3310 MFP and updated the driver data appropriately.
* db/source/*/*: Removed spaces from the names of the Okidata
OLxxx models, so that they get correctly sorted in the printer
listings. Modified option entries appropriately.
2002-03-20 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/*: Updated text of many HP and Apollo printers
and moved many of them from "Mostly" to "Perfectly".
* db/source/printer/*: Updated text of HP OfficeJet G and K series
because they need HPOJ also when one only wants to print via
USB.
* db/source/*/*: Added the Apollo P-1220 Barbie, P1250, P2250,
P-2550, and P-2650. Updated the driver data appropriately.

* db/source/printer/*: Updated data for the "hpijs" driver to fit
to HPIJS 1.0.4. Modified printer entries appropriate to the new
features ("hpijs" also recommended on large format printers,
DeskJet 990 and compatibles work "Perfectly").
2002-03-18 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/*: Modified text of HP LaserJet 1200, USB
printing only works with HPOJ.
2002-03-17 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-combo-xml.c: Introduced two debug output levels ("-v",
"-vv"). Now I do not need a special debug version any more.
2002-03-17 Manfred Wassmann <manolo@NCC-1701.B.Shuttle.de>
* makeDefaults: Added flag $DEBUG to enable debug messages from
Perl modules. It is not exported by default, you can import it
by adding qw(:DEFAULT $DEBUG) to the "use Foomatic::Defaults"
clause.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Cache is disabled if CACHEDIR is set to an
empty string at compile time, ie. "make CACHEDIR=".
2002-03-17 Manfred Wassmann <manolo@NCC-1701.B.Shuttle.de>
* debian/*: Docs README, TODO, USAGE were not included in the
debian package.
Changed handling of local changes by the debconf interface.
2002-03-16 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>

for LPRng, the permissions for the /var/log/lp-errs file are set
correctly now.
2002-03-05 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/*/*: Added Lexmark E210 laser printer (Samsung ML-4500
clone, "gdi" driver).
* foomatic-configure: Fixed bug that of float options in
PPD-O-Matic PPD files only the integer part of the default value
was read.
* foomatic-gswrapper: Fixed Red Hat bug #58319
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58319).
Some PostScript files cannot be handled by "gs ... - < file",
but they need "gs ... /dev/fd/0 < file".
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Fixed quoting for PDQ, now more complicated
driver command lines with quotes and shell script variables also
work with the PDQ-O-Matic config file generator. Assured that for
every call of GhostScript "foomatic-gswrapper" is used, to fix
Red Hat bug #58319 for all drivers, especially "Postscript".
* src/*omatic.pl: Assured that for every call of GhostScript
"foomatic-gswrapper" is used, to fix Red Hat bug #58319 for all
drivers, especially "Postscript".
2002-03-04 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>

HP DeskJet 610CL to the "hpijs" driver, fixed text for the
HP DeskJet 1125C.
* src/lpdomatic.pl: Replaced "if ( @pjlprepend > 0 )" by "if (
@pjlprepend > 1 )" so that PJL headers are only used when really
a PJL options is there. Many printers are listed as PJL-capable
in the database, but in reality they are not.
2002-03-03 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>

backup files created by editors and the patch utility. In
"testing_clean" target added "-f" to the "rm" command for the
links to the cache so that make does not stop with an error when
the links are not there.
2002-02-04 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* Makefile, src/*omatic, filter.conf: Modified Foomatic to only
make the filter scripts out of the source files in src/. Fixed
bugs on filter script source files: "enscript -b <title>", not
"enscript -b=<title>"; empty title gave a line on the top of the
page when using "mpage". Added "-J" (job title) option to
directomatic. Added sample filter.conf.

* src/lpdomatic.pl: Integrated changes from lpdomatic 1.10.
Overwrite PATH in INPLACE version too. Changed revision to 2.1
to avoid $lomversion clashes with the old scripts.
* src/cupsomatic.pl, src/directomatic.pl, src/ppromatic.pl:
Bootstrapped from corresponding filter scripts.
* src/Makefile: cupsomatic, directomatic and ppromatic get also
built.
2002-02-02 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* Makefile, makeDefaults, foomatic-configure, USAGE, README: Added
support for HPOJ (http://hpoj.sourceforge.net/, low-level driver
for HP's multi-function devices) with "ptal:/..." URIs.
2002-01-31 Tim Waugh <twaugh@redhat.com>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm (get_overview_xml): Create directory, like
get_overview_grove does. Also fixed quoting.
2002-01-30 Manfred Wassmann <manolo@NCC-1701.B.Shuttle.de>
* lpdomatic: Corrected the path to the configuration file.
2002-01-29 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-kitload, foomatic-kitload.8.in: Added "-d" option to
install the kit into a staging area from which a package will
be built (as "DESTDIR=..." in GNU automake/autoconf). This is
a patch from Roger Leigh.
* makeDefaults: Added the possibility to set the cache directory
alternatively with FOOMATIC_CACHEDIR instead of CACHEDIR.
* cupsomatic, ppromatic, lpdomatic, directomatic: Modified parser
for options embedded in the job data so that option and value
names can contain all printable characters except white space
and "=". This fixed a problem with the "Color Mode" option of
the "pcl3" driver.
2002-01-28 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/*/*: Added the HP LaserJet 3P with PCL5 extension.
2002-01-27 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* USAGE: Minor text modifications for XPP 1.1.
* db/source/*/*: Renamed the database entry for the Canon LIPS-II+
from "Canon-LIPS-II+" to "Canon-LIPS-IIplus". With the "+" in its
ID the printer entry was not accessible on the linuxprinting.org
web site.
2002-01-24 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-gswrapper: Replaced "-sOutputFile=|cat>&3" by
"-sOutputFile=/dev/fd/3" to make foomatic-gswrapper working with
all versions of GhostScript, of the shell, and of Unix.
2002-01-24 Manfred Wassmann <manolo@NCC-1701.B.Shuttle.de>
* foomatic-configure.1.in: Corrected manpage section in header.
* foomatic-kitload.8.in: Filled some gaps.
* lpdomatic.8.in: Describe how to print the docs.

* lpdomatic: Cleaned up user-editable settings part.
2002-01-21 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/opt/160.xml: Added Epson EPL lasers to constraint in
"Mode" option of "pxlmono"/"pxlcolor", they print only in bw.
* db/source/printer/*: The Epson EPL-5900/5900PS works perfectly
with "pxlmono", updated text, rating, and recommended driver.
* db/source/printer/*: Raised the rating for the Lexmark Z42 and
Compaq IJ1200 to "Mostly", to reflect the experience of the
author of "drv_z42" with these printers.
* db/source/printer/*: Corrected the ratings/texts for the Epson
Stylus Pro 7000/7500/9000/9500/10000.
* lpdomatic/makeDefaults: Modified the config file support to not
need a Perl library to make it easier to install lpdomatic without
installing the whole Foomatic package.
2002-01-20 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added '*PSVersion: "(3010.000) 652"' entry
for GhostScript 6.52 to the PPD files.
2002-01-20 Manfred Wassmann <manolo@NCC-1701.B.Shuttle.de>
* lpdomatic: Corrected the use of ConfigFile.pm.
* makeDefaults: Write "1;" at the end of ConfigFile.pm.

Enscriptcommand and debug flag can be specified in a config file
in $ETCDIR/filter.conf. Syntax is tag\s*:\s*value.
Added tabulator/indentation settings for emacs.
2002-01-18 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/Epson-AcuLaser_C1000.xml: Added the Epson
AcuLaser C1000 (Paperweight).
* db/source/*/*: Applied a patch by Tim Waugh (twaugh at redhat
dot com) which makes the Perl one-liners for paper tray
selection on PCL laser printers working on both Perl 5.6.0 and
5.6.1. The one-liners are in the GhostScript command lines of
the drivers entries for the PCL laser drivers ("lj5gray",
"ljet4", ...).
* db/source/printer/*: Updated text of the Epson EPL-5900/5900PS
because of a bug in Epson's driver.
2002-01-17 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/*: Added new Epson laser printer models:
EPL-5900, EPL-N2120.
* db/source/*/*: Added new driver entries "epl2120" and "epl5900"
for Epson-Kowa laser driver 1.0.4.
2002-01-16 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* cupsomatic, lpdomatic, ppromatic, directomatic: Auto-detection
of file converters a2ps, enscript, mpage, usage of the printer's
paper size setting for conversion to PostScript, with a2ps the
possibility to print also PDF, images, etc with LPD/LPRng and
with directomatic (CUPS and PPR do this by themselves, they use
the converter only for the docs pages).
* foomatic-configure: Fixed bug of "-Q" with PPR not working for
non-root users. CUPS queues are automatically set up with
PPD-O-Matic PPD files now (use "--oldppd" to get CUPS-O-Matic
PPD files), for PPD the PPD file is not stored twice any more, a
symbolic link is set instead.
* README, ChangeLog, foomatic-configure.1.in: Updated documentation
to take into account the new "--oldppd" option.
* db/source/*/*: HP removed the "HP only" clause from the license
of HPIJS, so HPIJS is free now.
2002-01-15 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Fixed some incompatibilities in the PDQ file
generator which prevented HPIJS 1.0 from working with PDQ.
2002-01-14 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Fixed bug of foomatic-configure stopping on
directomatic printer configuration when there is no directomatic
config file.
2002-01-13 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* cupsomatic/ppromatic: The PPD default values of float options were
not read correctly, fixed.
2002-01-12 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/*/*: Added HP e-printer e20 to HPIJS 1.0 datafiles.
* db/source/printers/*: Removed "Unverified" flags and cleaned up
text in many datafiles of HP inkjet printers.
* foomatic-preferred-driver: Only set new default driver when the
current one is not OK.
* foomatic-configure: Insert ":ppdfile=<PPD file name>:\" lines
into /etc/printcap (for LPD/GNUlpr/LPRng), so that the graphical
printing frontend GPR finds the PPD-O-Matic PPD files
automatically.
2002-01-11 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/*/*: Added "bjc250gs" driver and Canon BJC-250ex
printer.
2002-01-10 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-gswrapper: Replaced "-sOutputFile=|cat >&3" by
"-sOutputFile=|cat>&3" because the second one also works when
"gs" is a wrapper script around the real GhostScript binary.
2002-01-09 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* cupsomatic: Numerical options given on the command line were
ignored when using a PPD-O-Matic PPD file for the CUPS queue.
Fixed.
2002-01-08 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* Makefile, makeDefaults, lpdomatic.8.in: Moved lpdomatic back to
/usr/sbin.
2002-01-06 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Added support for direct, spooler-less
printing with directomatic, added auto-detection of PPR.
* directomatic: Added support for having a default printer.
* foomatic-datafile: Added "lprng" as possible datafile type (gives
the same result as "lpd").
* foomatic-configure.1.in: Completed the list of possible options,
corrected "-D" options ("Default", not "Delete").
* foomatic-printjob.1.in: Corrected command line for printing.
* README, USAGE: Updated to take into account all recent changes.
2002-01-06 Manfred Wassmann <manolo@NCC-1701.B.Shuttle.de>
* foomatic-configure: Bails out if it encounters a lprng style
printcap, like those created by lprngtool, as it would hose it
otherwise. This needs a better solution.
* foomatic-configure.1.in: Added description of the above problem.
* debian/control: The conflict with the cupsomatic-ppd package is
indicated.
2002-01-05 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* Makefile, makeDefaults: Added definitions for PPR and for
spooler-less printing.
* db/source/driver/Postscript.xml: Updated the text to also
mention that PPD files can be used also with the PPR spooler or
the GPR printing frontend.
2002-01-04 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* ppromatic: Made ppromatic stuffing the PostScript code of all
PostScript options into the job, in contrary to CUPS PPR only
stuffs in the code of options explicitly given on the command
line or in the "Switchset".
* foomatic-configure: Added PPR support.
2002-01-03 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* ppromatic: Made it possible to have PPD files in other
directories than /usr/share/ppr/PPDFiles, let ppromatic eat up
data on STDIN to make documentation printing ("-i docs") working
correctly. When original job is not completely read, PPR does
not dequeue the print job and stops the printer because it
assumes that the job was not correctly printed.
2002-01-02 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/*/*: Added Compaq IJ1200 (Z42 clone), assigned Lexmark
5700 drivers to Compaq IJ900 (5700 clone). Fixed text of Lexmark
5700.
* db/source/opt/hpijs-Quality.xml: Fixed typo in human-readable
text for 600-dpi-CMYK-normal quality.
2002-01-01 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/opt/hpijs-PageSize.xml: Worked around a bug in HPIJS
1.0 which breaks the paper size setting via PostScript commands.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added photo paper sizes for the HPIJS 1.0
driver to the "getpapersize()" function.
2002-01-01 Manfred Wassmann <manolo@NCC-1701.B.Shuttle.de>

"cZ11" and "c2070" drivers.
2001-12-30 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/Epson-EPL-5800L.xml: Added the Epson EPL-5800L
laser winprinter.

settings of the HP/Apollo printers for the new "hpijs" 1.0
version.
2001-12-18 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/*: Added/modified HP inkjets for the "hpijs" 1.0
driver.
2001-12-17 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Applied a patch from Crutcher Dunnavant
(crutcher@redhat.com) which sets all Perl variables in shell
command lines ($poid, $drv. $libdir, ...) into single quotes, so
that nothing breaks when a strange printer/driver ID or a
strangely named directory is used.
* db/source/driver/*: Made Perl one-liner for paper tray selection
in PCL laser printer driver XML files less memory-consuming.
2001-12-16 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/Minolta-PagePro_1100L.xml,
db/source/printer/642674.xml: Added the Paperweight "Minolta
PagePro 1100L".
2001-12-14 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Made "-f" (Force compilation) flag working
for overview request ("-O").
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Functions using "foomatic-combo-xml" check
the cache before and use it, if appropriate files
available. Printer ID set into single quotes in the
"foomatic-combo-xml" command line, to not break with the new
clear text printer IDs (Thanks to Crutcher Dunnavant,
crutcher@redhat.com for his suggestions).
* Makefile: Let "make install" also install the man pages.
2001-12-13 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* directomatic: Possibility to use a printer definition file in
~/.foomatic/direct/ or in the current directory.
* Makefile, makeDefaults: Added /etc/ppr directory, fixed typo.
2001-12-12 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/*: Set links for the new location of the
"Lexmark Foomatic Kit" in the comments of the database entries
for the Lexmark Z22, Z23, Z32, Z33, Z52, Z53.
2001-12-11 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Made the "PaperDimension", "ImageableArea",
and "PageRegion" entries in CUPS and generic PPD files working
if the "PageSize" option is not the standard PostScript option,
but a command line option or something else (as in the
"ppmtocpva" or in the "pentaxpj" drivers.
* db/source/opt/2.xml, db/source/driver/c2050.xml: Drivers
"c2050", "cZ11", and "cZ11somsom" had no "PageSize" option,
fixed.
2001-12-11 Manfred Wassmann <manolo@NCC-1701.B.Shuttle.de>
* directomatic.1.in manpage added.
* debian/: Bugfixes in the Debian specific files.
2001-12-10 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/*/*: Updated home page address and comment of the
"lm1100" driver and added a "Brightness" option to that driver
and replaced the "Monochrome" option by "Ink Type".
* db/source/drivers/lpstyl.xml: Re-hosted "lpstyl" driver on
linuxprinting,org, original home page is dead. Modified the
comments in the database entry file appropriately.
* db/source/drivers/gdi.xml: Added filter for MagicFilter users to
easily integrate this driver. Modified the comments in the
database entry file appropriately.
* db/source/*/*: Okipage 6w only works with "oki4w" 2.0, not with
2.1. Modified the comments in the database entry files
appropriately.
* db/source/printers/214153.xml: My Stylus Color 500 has problems
with Gimp-Print 4.2. Modified the comments in the database entry
files appropriately.

densities to 50 instead of 100.
* db/source/driver/cZ11somsom.xml: Corrected command line to make
printing with the black cartridge working.
* db/source/printer/89152.xml: Comments cleaned up for Canon
BJC-2000.
* db/source/printer/Canon-BJC-2010.xml: New printer entry: Canon
BJC-2010.
* db/source/driver/bjc600.xml, db/source/opt/6.xml: Added Canon
BJC-2010 to the "bjc600" driver.
* db/source/printer/Canon-BJ-100.xml: New printer entry: Canon
BJ-100.
* db/source/driver/bj200.xml: Added Canon BJ-100 to the "bj200"
driver.
* db/source/printer/123584.xml: Added comments about the problems
with the Xerox DocuPrint XJ8C.
* db/source/printer/Pentax-PocketJet*: Added the ultra-portable
printers from Pentax.
* db/source/*/pentaxpj*: Added "pentaxpj" driver for the
ultra-portable Pentax PocketJet printers.
2001-12-09 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* cupsomatic: Added support for the accounting facility of CUPS.
Only works with $debug = 0 and when GhostScript is rendering
the PostScript.
* foomatic-ppdload, lib/Foomatic/PPD.pm: "new PPD" and "new
UIElem" replaced by "new Foomatic::PPD" and "new
Foomatic::UIElem", otherwise the "new" methods will not be found
in the respective libraries.
* db/source/printer/Lexmark-Z43.xml: Updated the comments.
2001-12-07 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* directomatic: New filter for spooler-less printing. See in the
comments in the beginning how to use it.
* Makefile: Added definitions for PPR, added directomatic
and ppromatic to be installed
* makeDefaults: Added definitions for PPR, moved lpdomatic to
/usr/bin
* lpdomatic.1.in: lpdomatic in /usr/bin => "man 1 lpdomatic"
* foomatic-datafile: Added "direct" data file type for
Direct-O-Matic
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Modified comments of the LPD-O-Matic printer
description file (generated by the function "getlpddata()")
because these files are also used for Direct-O-Matic.
2001-12-07 Manfred Wassmann <foomatic@NCC-1701.B.Shuttle.de>
* Makefile: Split the install target into install-bin and
install-db. Added PHONY target to mark targets not related to
real files.
* Manpages: Added a script to generate manpages with correct
pathnames from files named <manpage>.<section>.in.
Created more or less useable manpages for all binaries.
* debian: Bootstrapped a debian directory for building Debian
packages.
2001-12-06 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* cupsomatic: Corrected link to documentation web page in the
comments in the beginning of the script.
2001-12-04 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* cupsomatic, lpdomatic, ppromatic: Cleaned up multi-processing,
now the parent processes wait for their children to finish and
the interprocess communication pipes are closed after use. The
main process waiting for their children to exit fixes especially
a problem of lpdomatic: LPRng resetted the printer port when the
lpdomatic was ready, but in reality lpdomatic sub-processes were
still working on the job, which lead to incomplete pages being
printed (Bug #486096 on SourceForge). Also updated the comments
in the beginning of the files
* foomatic-datafile: Added PPR support.
* foomatic-configure: Added the "-w 1" option to "nc" used in the
$postpipe for LPD, otherwise "nc" only exits a rather long time
after all data has be transmitted to the printer. This prevents
the new lpdomatic from exiting immediately after the job has
finished and so it takes a longer time until the next job
starts.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Used "/PageSize[...]" instead of
"/PageRegion[...]" in the "*PageRegion" option of the
PPD-O-Matic PPD files becasue GhostScript does not understand
"/PageRegion[...]" (found this out during tests of PPR, which
uses the "*PageRegion" option and not the "*PageSize" option to
set the paper size.
2001-12-02 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* ppromatic: Completed first version of ppromatic: Added error and
signal handling. Introduced back channel from child processes to
main process and let main process wait until all children finish,
to not loose any error message or exit status to report to PPR.
2001-11-30 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/*/*: Added some comments about the similarity of the
Sharp and Xerox inkjets.
* db/source/opt/207.xml: Made "Model" option of "pcl3" having only
the correct model entry as possible choice (as "Model" option of
"gimp-print"/"stp".
2001-11-29 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-preferred-driver: Higher priority for "pcl3" against
"sharp.upp", the support of the "pcl3" driver for the Sharp and
Xerox inkjets is much better since version 3.3 of "pcl3".
* db/source/*/*: Added Sharp/Xerox printers to list of printers
supported by "pcl3" because of better Sharp/Xerox support by
"pcl3" version 3.3, also changed the recommended driver of the
Sharp and Xerox inkjets to "pcl3" and the functionality to
"Mostly".
2001-11-24 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* ppromatic: Interface for the spooler PPR (ppr.sourceforge.net)
introduced. To set up printer download PPD-O-Matic PPD file from
your driver's page of the linuxprinting.org database (or use
"foomatic-datafile -t ppd ...") and do
cp ppromatic /usr/lib/ppr/interfaces/
cp <downloaded ppd file> /usr/share/ppr/PPDFiles/
ppad interface <queue> ppromatic <address>
ppad options <queue> backend=<interface>
ppad ppd <queue> <ppd file without path>
(Addiyional command to set up paper trays)
<interface> means the PPR interface name for the desired printer
connection type (all in /usr/lib/ppr/interfaces/: parallel,
serial, tcpip, lpr, smb, atalk, ...).
<address> means the printer address as needed by the interface
(/dev/lp0 for parallel, printer.domain.com:9100 for tcpip, ...)
<ppd file without path> is the name under which you have saved
your downloaded PPD file. Do not specify the path
/usr/share/ppr/PPDFiles/
2001-11-23 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* cupsomatic: Let numerical option default settings in be used
when a printer is used with a PPD-O-Matic PPD file.
2001-11-22 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Made HTML display of how to invoke a driver
working correctly with the new XML Foomatic and enhanced it,
especially for tricky command lines ("Execution Details" pages).
* db/source/opt/*: Corrected the "Required" state for many
options, to get the "Execution Details" pages correct.
2001-11-21 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/drv_z42: New web site for "drv_z42".
2001-11-20 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>

Especially USAGE contains info about printing with graphical
interfaces and out of applications now.
2001-11-16 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-preferred-driver: Added the "sj48" driver in the list,
so that when one adds "omni" as the last entry, the "sj48" will
get priority.
2001-11-15 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* cupsomatic: Added support for GPR as CUPS printing frontend.
* db/source/*/*: Added Lexmark Z43 (supported by "drv_z42"
driver), corrections on Lexmark Z42.
2001-11-14 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added generation of a generic purpose PPD
file (PPD-O-Matic), made generated PDQ scripts using settings
added by an application using the PPD file, fixed bug of PDQ not
printing when driver command line is composed of various shell
commands. Removed some replacements of special characters in the
generation of PDQ config files, they caused some driver command
lines to get "overquoted" characters.
* cupsomatic, lpdomatic: Added support for the new generic PPD
files, jobs are searched for settings done by applications using
these PPD files.
* foomatic-datafile: Added "-t ppd" option to generate generic PPD
files.

Gimp-Print is broken.
2001-09-24 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-combo-xml.c: Fixed a bug of not setting the high scores
for the constraints.
2001-09-22 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: "checkpc -f" after any change on an LPRng
system. LPRng refuses to print when one file has wrong
permissions.
2001-09-13 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* cupsomatic: Made the "sides" (Duplex) option of CUPS working
with printers using Foomatic.

* db/source/printer/62720.xml, db/source/driver/lj5*: The HP
LaserJet 5L does not work with the lj5gray/lj5mono drivers.
* cupsomatic: All enumerated options with choices "On", "Off",
"Yes", "No", "True", or "False" did not work with CUPS. This is
fixed now.
2001-09-03 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Possibility to set a system-wide default
printer for all spoolers, for CUPS and PDQ, non-root users can
also set a personal default printer. Due to the architecture of
LPD a queue named "lp" will be renamed when another queue is set
as the default queue.
* Makefile, makeDefaults: Added the "lpoptions" utility of CUPS
which is needed to set a remote printer as default or to set
a personal default printer for non-root users.
* USAGE: Added information about the new default printer setting
facility.
* README: Adapted to all recent changes.
* TODO: Removed the topic about speed and memory consumption, this
is solved by foomatic-combo-xml.c now.
2001-09-02 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-combo-xml.c: Added functionality for generating the
overview XML file ("-O" option). Makes the overview XML
generation much faster, less than a second on most machines.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Let the overview XML generation be done
preferrably by foomatic-combo-xml.c.
* Makefile: Added the removal of the foomatic-combo-xml binary
to the "clean" section, let foomatic-preferred-driver be
installed in /usr/sbin.
* foomatic-preferred-driver: Bugfix: Often default driver entries
were not inserted into the printer XML file.

HP LaserJet 5Si.
2001-08-28 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-combo-xml.c: C program to build XML files for
printer/driver combos, around 600 times faster than the perl
routines in lib/Foomatic/DB.pm (one Gimp-Print combo in 0.5-1.5
sec. foomatic-compiledb in a few minutes), needs less than 10 MB
of memory. Pre-building of the database for distros not needed
any more.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Make foomatic-combo-xml.c being preferrably
used for building printer/driver combo data.
* Makefile, makeDefaults: Integration of foomatic-combo-xml.c.
2001-08-26 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/driver/*: Removed printer entry 207945 from the printer
list of the "laserjet" and "stp" drivers, the printer was deleted.

HL-1470N, HL-2460, HL-2460N, HL-2400CeN, HL-3400CN, MFC-P2500.
* db/source/*/*: Added some more Brothers to the hl1250 driver.
* db/source/opt/207.xml, db/source/opt/208.xml: Corrected default
settings for the Apollo P-1200 with the pcl3 driver. It needs
the the model setting "Unspecified old model" and a CMY colour
mode.
* db/source/driver/hpijs.xml, db/source/opt/hpijs-Model.xml,
db/source/opt/hpijs-Quality.xml, db/source/printer/413737.xml:
The Apollo P-2200 works with drivers for the HP DeskJet 612C,
taken this into account.
* db/source/printer/Okidata-ML_32?.xml, db/source/driver/okiibm.xml:
Added the printers Okidata ML 320/321.
* db/source/printer/63200.xml: Added comment to the IBM 4019.

* db/source/printer/24832.xml: Added useful info about the NEC P6
plus.
* db/source/driver/epsonc.xml: This driver is needed to print on
the NEC PinWriter P6/P6 plus in colour.
* foomatic-preferred-driver: Given priority to the "necp6" driver
against the "epsonc" because in most cases the NEC PinWriter P6
is used without colour add-on.
* db/source/*/*: Fixed bug in hpijs driver data: The docs talk about
"DJ6xxP" for the "DeviceName" setting for photo-capable DeskJet
6xx models, in reality "DJ6xxPhoto" has to be used.
* db/source/driver/sharp.upp.xml: Explained how to install
"sharp.upp".
2001-08-20 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/337577.xml: Duplicate entry for the HP OfficeJet
G55, deleted.

working.
* db/source/driver/sharp.upp.xml: Added the new Sharp printers
(AJ-1805/2005) and the Xerox DucuPrint M750/M760.
* db/source/driver/hl1250.xml: Updated the URL of the driver's home
page.
* db/source/driver/hl1250.xml, db/source/opt/53.xml: Removed the
"Model" option from the "hl1250" driver, the GhostScript option
"-sDEVICE=hl1240" or "-sDEVICE=hl1250" only determines the
default resolution which is anyway overridden by Foomatic.
* db/source/opt/161.xml: The media source selection for the
"Postscript" driver only works for HP printers, restricted to HP.
2001-08-19 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/printer/*: Added HP and Apollo printers: Apollo P-2100,
P-2150, HP DeskJet 816C, 980C, e-printer e20, PhotoSmart P1215,

LBP-800, deleted.
* db/source/printer/207945.xml: Duplicate entry for the HP LaserJet
2, deleted.
* foomatic-preferred-driver: Added new "hpijs" driver.
2001-08-17 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* Makefile: Moved foomatic-configure from /usr/sbin to /usr/bin.
* db/source/printer/Epson-Stylus_C[24]0*: Split up the entries for
the Epson Stylus C20/C40 into the SX and UX models. This is needed
for the Gimp-Print GhostScript driver.
2001-08-16 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Support for printers on NetWare (with LPD
and LPRng), output of the printer list both as root and normal
user, LPRng SIGHUP after adding a new queue, spooler detection
bug fix.
2001-08-11 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Fixed bug of options not being conserved
when changing parameters of a CUPS or PDQ printer. $olddatablob
was defined at the wrong place. Added paths for rlpr, nc, and
smbclient to Defaults.pm, so these commands can also be called
when foomatic-configure is running in an environment without
$PATH, for example during the installation of a distro.
* Makefile, makeDefaults: Paths for rlpr, nc, and smbclient added.
2001-08-05 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* db/source/opt/ppmtocpva-solidblack.xml: Added option "-solidblack"
to "ppmtocpva" driver, it is new in the version 1.0 of the driver.
* db/source/printer/168201.xml: Corrected the resolution of the
Citizen Printiva 600C.
* db/source/driver/ppmtocpva.xml: Added the old Alps MD models to
the printers supported by the "ppmtocpva" driver.
2001-08-01 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-cleanupdrivers: Removes all driver entries without
command line (<prototype>..</prototype>) from a local Foomatic
database. So frontends do not display "unusable" printer/driver
combos.
* foomatic-preferred-drivers: Simple program which adds a
<driver>..</driver> entry to every printer. The best driver is
determined by a ranking. When one deletes all XML files for
drivers which are not available on the system (and adds XML files
for additional drivers) all printers will have the best driver
of the current system as preferred driver.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Exported "get_overview" for
foomatic-preferred-drivers.
* db/source/*/*: Added the newest inkjets of Epson and the newest
lasers of HP: Epson Stylus C20, C40, Epson Stylus Photo 785,
875, 895, Epson Stylus Pro 10000, HP LaserJet 1200, 1220, 2200,
3200m, 4100, 8150, 9000, HP Color LaserJet 4550.
* db/source/*/*: Corrected driver list for the HP LaserJet 3200se,
it is the same as for the HP LaserJet 3200 now.
* db/source/driver/bjc600.xml: Removed the Canon BJC-5000 from the
list of supported printers, it is a paperweight for sure.
* db/source/printer/474354.xml: Removed this extra entry for the
Canon BJC-85. It was a relict of the time when the database was
publicly editable.
2001-07-29 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Take preferred driver (<driver>..</driver>
tag) into thw overview listing (overview.xml, foomatic-configure
-O).
* db/source/opt/69.xml: Made the "Normal" quality with the "cdj880"
driver available again for all printers. With GNU GhostScript
6.51 it works without problems.
2001-07-25 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: When one uses the -P option with a printer
and a driver to obtain the datablob of this combo, one can also
supply a queue to apply the default options of that queue to the
datablob of the chosen combo. This can be used when one wants to
change the driver used for a queue with the help of a
frontend. The obtained datablob can be used to generate the
option dialog in this situation.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: The option and choice value arrays are
sorted now (by a standard option list, by the "normalizename"
function which is already used for printer names on the web
site, and alphabatically/case-insensitive), so in XPDQ, KUPS,
QtCUPS, XPP, the upcoming new printerdrake (Mandrake 8.1), and
other frontends the options and choices will appear sorted.
2001-07-21 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Added the possibility to copy/clone queues,
now queues can be transferred to another spooler conserving all
settings, including the default option settings. Restructured
all queue query functions, now they can also generate complete
Perl datablobs with all option default settings (even settings
which XPDQ has written into /etc/pdq/printrc or which KUPS has
written into the PPD files) and all queue settings as the
connection URI, description, location, ... (in the new
'queuedata' field). This facility can be used by graphical
frontends. Now foomatic-configure also supports to be called
unser different names and to load the default spooler choice
from a file.
2001-07-20 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Restructured all queue setup functions, now
it is possible with all the spoolers to modify queues by only
supplying the items which are changed on the foomatic-configure
command line. One can even delete the description or location
entries or switch from a queue with driver to a raw
queue. Default settings for options do not get lost when one
changes the driver and the new driver has options with the same
name. Also option settings done with the "native" tools of CUPS
and PDQ do not get lost on any kind of manipulation done with
foomatic-configure. Extra Perl datablob files removed to avoid
problems with maintaining redundant data repositories. Datablobs
are now in the main config files (they were already there for
CUPS and LPD/LPRng, for PDQ they are addad now. Output of
datablobs for frontends will be done by a special command line
option. The query functions are cleaned up now.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Added Perl datablob to the PDQ datafiles,
added a line break to the end of all "die" and "warn" messages
to clean the error message output.
2001-07-19 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-printjob: Fixed command line option translation when
printing with PDQ (numerical options).
* foomatic-configure: XML-Combo data in /etc/foomatic is gzipped
now (compression factor 10), Perl datablobs with the
user-supplied default option settings are stored in
/etc/foomatic, too (gzip factor 8). They serve for frontends to
get the available options and make it easier to transfer the
queues without loss of option settings.
Setup function for LPD/LPRng restructured, it allows modifying a
queue only supplying the information which changes on the
foomatic-configure command line. One can even change the driver
and all default settings of options with the same name in the
old and the new driver are conserved.
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Fixed help page of PDQ (numerical options).
2001-07-18 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-printjob: Links named "lp", "lpr", "lpq", "lprm", and
"lpc" to the foomatic-printjob executable can be made and the
program does the action of the appropriate command when called
through one of the links, job list ("lpq") output of LPRng
filtered so that it comes out in the same form as the job
listings of the other spoolers, possibility to save a default
spooler.
2001-07-17 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-printjob: Added all missing job listing and job removal
functions. Added functionality for advanced queue and job
control. Updated help message.

* makeDefaults: Added CUPS commands for queue and job control.
2001-07-16 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-printjob: Added job listing (query) and job removal
functions for PDQ. Added job listing function for LPD. Added
line breaks at the end of all "die" calls so that the line
number is not shown when the program executes the appropriate
"die",
* foomatic-configure: Added line breaks at the end of all "die"
calls.
2001-07-15 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-printjob: Coomand line options which are not used by
foomatic-printjob are passed to spooler-specific printing
command, Support for printing multiple copies with PDQ, printer
queue can also be specified with the "-d" option.
2001-07-14 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-printjob: Exit status of the spooler's printing command
is passed back to the user as the exit status of
foomatic-printjob, GNU-lpr (VA-Linux) is auto-detected and the
options are passed appropriately. Clean-up of the help message
(option -h).
* foomatic-configure: Support for setting default options, help
message cleaned up.
2001-07-13 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Removed backquote from the boolean option
example in the PDQ help page. It broke the shell script for
printing the page. Preliminary fix for foomatic-configure not
exiting when building combo data with the Gimp-Print Foomatic
data installed: Flushing memory cache during build after
treatment of every option.
* foomatic-printjob: Fixed option handling,
* foomatic-configure: Set automatically a search path to
/etc/foomatic/pdq into the /usr/lib/pdq/printrc file, so that
the Foomatic driver description files are found.
2001-07-11 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* Makefile: The INSTALLPREFIX facility was broken. Fixed.
* USAGE: Added user instructions.
* README: Pointed to new USAGE file
2001-07-05 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* sharp.upp: New driver for the Sharp AJ-1800/2000 inkjet printers
2001-07-02 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* Makefile: Added foomatic-printjob to the user programs to be
installed
2001-07-01 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Now the combo XML data and not only the
printer data is stored in /etc/foomatic for every queue, the
"-X" option allows also getting combo data by supplying both a
printer and a driver, the logfile for the LPD/LPRng queues,
/var/log/lp-errs is touched now when a queue is added, so that
it is made sure that it exists.
* foomatic-printjob, Makefile, makeDefaults: First sketch of
foomatic-printjob: Now one has basic printing functionality with
options on all spoolers.
2001-06-30 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure, Makefile, makeDefaults: PDQ support added:
Now we have a command-line-based administration interface for
PDQ and the basic functionality of foomatic-configure is
completed. Fixed bug in help message of foomatic-configure. In
LPD "rlpr" is only used for remote LPD queues with filter, for
raw queues the "rm" and "rp" tags in the /etc/printcap file are
used.
2001-06-29 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Added LPRng support (without
magicfilter). The support is done by adding the differences
between LPD and LPRng in the functions for handling LPD. Fixed
autodetection of LPRng (typo).
2001-06-29 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lpdomatic: Fixed: The documentation page did not show the
correct lpr command line example for LPRng and when lpdomatic
does not find the printer driver description file (*.lom) it did
not put the file name into the error message.
* Makefile: Removed comment that LPRng is not supported yet.
2001-06-28 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* lib/Foomatic/DB.pm: Fixed several bugs in the function
getpdqdata(): PostScript/PJL options were not prepended to the
job data/the GhostScript output, let the choice names be
<option>_<choice> and not only <choice>, because in PDQ one
provides only the choice name and not the option name and the
choice name on the command line. So options with the same choice
names (as "Duplex" and "Manualfeed" on the LaserJet 4050 with
"ljet4" driver, which have both "On" and "Off" as choices) are
ambiguous, added "docs" option to print documentation page with
PDQ, fixed boolean options, they were broken. Text file printout
done with "mpage" now.
* cupsomatic, lpdomatic: Fixed bug of "This option corresponds to
a PJL command" not appearing on documentation page (option
"docs").
2001-06-27 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Query function for CUPS, corrected bug in
function dump_config where the <queue ...> tag was closed by
</foomatic>, fixed query function for LPD, so that it supports
all backend types, remote LPD printing under LPD done with
"rlpr".
* Makefile, makeDefaults: Added /etc/cups/printers.conf.
2001-06-26 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Support for adding/modifying and removing
CUPS queues (for all backends supported by CUPS).
* cupsomatic: Parsing of options embedded in the document
fixed. For accessing the value of an enumerated option $avalue
instead of $value was used, so the values read into $value were
not inserted into the option list. Search the first 1000 lines
for options because after polling the PJL options from a printer
or with a PostScript printer with many features in its PPD file
the 100 lines can easily be exceeded.
* lpdomatic/cupsomatic (common part): The support of PJL option is
marked by the existence of the "pjl" key in the Perl data set of
the printer/driver combo. So "if (defined($dat->{'pjl'}))" and
not "if ($dat->{'pjl'})" has to be asked to check PJL support.
2001-06-25 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Support for adding CUPS queues (all queue
types supported by "lpadmin"). Bugfixes in queue setup for LPD:
Make directories before the backend script for raw queues is
written to there, Rename old $etcfile and $etcxfile also when
one sets up a raw queue.
* Makefile, makeDefaults: Set default paths and file names for CUPS,
let cupsomatic be installed in the CUPS filter directory.
2001-06-24 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* foomatic-configure: Now one can configure all types of
LPD queues automatically: local USB/parallel, remote
LPD/SMB/Socket. In addition one can define a queue which pipes the
output into an arbitrary command or a raw queue. Bugfix: Removed
colon after "q" (="quiet") in "getopts()" line. Introduced "-f"
(="force") flag of foomatic-datafile.
* lpdomatic (bugfix): In lpdomatic the
prepending of PJL options is suppressed for non-PJL printers.
* Makefile (bugfix): Added foomatic-*pjloptions, moved
foomatic-configure to admin programs. Fixed links of the pcache
and compiled directories in /var/cache/foomatic to
/usr/local/share/foomatic/db, before the printer combo was always
recompiled.
2001-06-21 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* Makefiles: Allowed the possibility to install the Perl libs with
another prefix than the rest of the files. So installation is also
possible when Perl does not search for libraries in /usr/local.
2001-06-20 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* Bugfixes: foomatic-configure could not delete queues, makeDefaults
set a wrong path for lpdomatic, Makefile missed a "make" in
the process of installing the Perl libraries.
2001-06-16 Till Kamppeter <till.kamppeter@gmx.net>
* PJL options can be added to the Foomatic data now:
foomatic-getpjloptions retrives them from the printer,
foomatic-addpjloptions generates XML datasets from them.
2001-04-01 Grant Taylor <gtaylor@linuxprinting.org>
* Various renaming has happened. Instead of 'PHTDBPUB', it's
Foomatic::DB. Foomatic::Defaults exports the libdir et al into
you, and the flock of companion modules represent other mostly
internal code.
* Rearranged all the code; now there's a proper Perl module, in
theory at least, in Foomatic/, and the toplevel Makefile
supports this. There's also 'make testing', for a run-in-place
setup.
2001-03-14 Grant Taylor <gtaylor@linuxprinting.org>
* Minor updates to reflect website postgres->xml conversion.
2001-03-10 Grant Taylor <gtaylor@linuxprinting.org>
* Added section="??" attribuge to arg_postscript. Now it's clear
where the Postscript snippets should be placed in the document.
OTOH, the filters haven't even absorbed Crutcher's DocumentSetup
patch, nevermind support for other locations. And JCL still
isn't handled. Or ppd constraints. Or queries. Etc.
* Fixed Till's bug wrt empty options being left out. Also fixed a
few other subtle bugs in ppd parser and foo option generator.
* Small updates to Makefile; it might work again. Note that it
modifies the scripts in place before installing, which will
cause confusion if you attempt further work in place.
* Added foomatic-kitload, which imports source data subsets into
the local data library.
2001-03-07 Grant Taylor <gtaylor@linuxprinting.org>
* Various additional checks and things when doing combo ops in
hopes of avoiding horribly mysterious error messages.
* Implemented foomatic-ppdload. It might even work(tm).
2001-03-06 Grant Taylor <gtaylor@linuxprinting.org>
* Made dump_db strip out illegal constraints, and implemented
comments filtering. Only <p> and <a> are allowed now. <br> is
mapped into <p>.
* New snap of Postgres database
* Make install should(tm) now do something sensible. It still
ought to autodetect "flavor" for foomatic-configure.
* Rename make-datafile to foomatic-datafile.
* Wrap f-c -Q output in <queues> to make it have one toplevel
entity.
2001-03-04 Grant Taylor <gtaylor@linuxprinting.org>
* Removed constraints entirely from combo data. So arg_defval now
appears at /option/arg_defval instead of at
/option/constraints/constraint/arg_defval.
* Switch verified tag to an unverified tag. Eventually, the xml
dataset will be defined as containing only verified information,
so this way there's one less tag for maintainers to fiddle with.
* Prepare for CVS integration.
* Various minor twiddles around the website programs.
* args_byname twiddle for Till.
* Include all the backends in the package.
2001-02-28 Grant Taylor <gtaylor@linuxprinting.org>
* Require Storable
* Added printer autodetect sections to overview. Use xpath or
similar to see the values in /printer/autodetect/parallel
* -Q in foomatic-configure; prints XML summary of system printer
configuration. -X and -O allow examination of the whole
database. f-c API should now be sufficient to build GUIs atop.
* compile_db changes to limit pain of Perl memory leaks.
* Added the pcache, a persistent pre-parsed cache of everything.
* Various buglets from Till. Invalid constraints just warn, don't
hose the whole option. Etc.
* Add foomatic-configure; initial LPD support.
* Various typos and minor fixes; the overview compile/save was
broken, and the overview Perl was missing the driver list.
* Begin beta3.
2001-02-25 Grant Taylor <gtaylor@linuxprinting.org>
* Added methods get_makes, get_javascript2, get_models_by_make,
get_printer_from_make_model.
* Added overview support. Various methods now return or use the
overview infromation; the overview is just a summary listing of
various database-wide info. By using it, many operations are
less horribly slow. The overview is db/compiled/overview.xml
* Don't actually need XML::Grove::PerlSAX.
* Added -f clag to compile_db, and extra work avoidance code.
* Fixed variable naming bug in pdq generator, and fixed boolean
option conversion in getdat.
2001-02-25 Grant Taylor <gtaylor@habanero.picante.com>
* Included an experimental dataset from the new data generation
code I've written for gimp-print. The driver "stp-4.1.5" might
even work(tm).
2001-02-20 Grant Taylor <gtaylor@habanero.picante.com>
* Subtle adjustments to <constraint> contents. The <sense>
element is gone; replaced with the sense="true" or sense="false"
attribute on the <constraint> tag itself. Also, you can now
specify a <printer>printer-id</printer> element instead of
make/model; this is useful for automatically generated data.
