332 Configuration of <application>Cups</application> is dependent on
333 the type of printer and can be complex. Generally, PostScript printers
334 are easier. For detailed instructions on configuration and use of
335 <application>Cups</application>, see <ulink

340 <para>
341 For non-PostScript printers to print with
342 <application>Cups</application>, you need to install <xref linkend="gs"/>
343 to convert PostScript to raster images and a driver (e.g., from
344 <xref linkend="gutenprint"/>) to convert the resulting raster images to a
345 form that the printer understands.
346 <ulink url="http://www.linuxprinting.org/foomatic.html">Foomatic</ulink>
347 drivers use Ghostscript to convert PostScript to a printable form directly,
