     212    <para>Configuration of <application>Cups</application> is dependent on
    186213    the type of printer and can be complex. Generally, PostScript printers
    187214    are easier. For detailed instructions on configuration and use of
    188     <application>CUPS</application>, see <ulink
     215    <application>Cups</application>, see <ulink

    190217    Manual and Software Users Manual are particularly useful.</para>
    191218
    192219    <para>For non-PostScript printers to print with
    193     <application>CUPS</application>, you need to install
    194     <xref linkend="gs"/> to convert PostScript to raster images
    195     and a driver (e.g., from <xref linkend="gutenprint"/>) to convert
    196     the resulting raster images to a form that the printer understands.
     220    <application>Cups</application>, you need to install <xref linkend="gs"/>
     221    to convert PostScript to raster images and a driver (e.g., from
     222    <xref linkend="gutenprint"/>) to convert the resulting raster images to a
     223    form that the printer understands.
    197224    <ulink url="http://www.linuxprinting.org/foomatic.html">Foomatic</ulink>
    198225    drivers use Ghostscript to convert PostScript to a printable form directly,
