Description

A Foomatic database extension containing manufacturer-supplied printer description files released under non-free licenses. It can improve support for printers whose official PPD data is not freely licensed.

Use it when a specific printer needs these manufacturer files. It does not add a separate application, and license terms may be more restrictive than the rest of the printing stack.
