Download Source Package foomatic-filters-ppds:
Foomatic is a printer database designed to make it easier to set up common printers for use with Debian (and other operating systems). It provides the "glue" between a print spooler (like CUPS or lpr) and your actual printer, by telling your computer how to process files sent to the printer.
This package provides Adobe-compliant PPD files for *every single printer* supported by Foomatic. Unless you want to be able to select your printer from the web interface of CUPS or PPR, you almost certainly don't want this package. Instead, you can use the "foomatic-configure" script in foomatic-db-engine, the "foomatic-gui" package, or the web interface for getting a particular PPD file at http://www.linuxprinting.org/printer_list.cgi
This package *does not* provide manufacturer-supported PPD files for PostScript printers; those are included in the linuxprinting.org-ppds package.
Again, you probably don't want this package unless you have a lot of disk space to spare and/or using the CUPS or PPR web interface to set up your printer queue is important to you.
