ppdi - import ppd files (deprecated)
ppdi [ -I include-directory ] [ -o source-file ] ppd-file [ ... ppd-
file ]
ppdi imports one or more PPD files into a PPD compiler source file.
Multiple languages of the same PPD file are merged into a single
printer definition to facilitate accurate changes for all
localizations. This program is deprecated and will be removed in a
future release of CUPS.
ppdi supports the following options:
-I include-directory
Specifies an alternate include directory. Multiple -I options
can be supplied to add additional directories.
-o source-file
Specifies the PPD source file to update. If the source file
does not exist, a new source file is created. Otherwise the
existing file is merged with the new PPD file(s) on the command-
line. If no source file is specified, the filename ppdi.drv is
used.
PPD files are deprecated and will no longer be supported in a future
feature release of CUPS. Printers that do not support IPP can be
supported using applications such as ippeveprinter(1).
