343 Configuration of <application>Cups</application> is dependent on
344 the type of printer and can be complex. Generally, PostScript printers
345 are easier. For detailed instructions on configuration and use of
346 <application>Cups</application>, see <ulink
347 url="http://www.cups.org/documentation.php"/>. The Software
348 Administrators Manual and Software Users Manual are particularly useful.

351 <para>
352 For non-PostScript printers to print with
353 <application>Cups</application>, you need to install <xref linkend="gs"/>
354 to convert PostScript to raster images and a driver (e.g., from
355 <xref linkend="gutenprint"/>) to convert the resulting raster images to a
356 form that the printer understands.
357 <ulink url="http://www.linuxprinting.org/foomatic.html">Foomatic</ulink>
358 drivers use Ghostscript to convert PostScript to a printable form directly,
359 but this is considered to be a hack by <application>Cups</application>
360 developers.
