foomatic-db 20080211-0ubuntu1 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu intrepid

 Foomatic is a printing system 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 contains the printer database distributed by
 OpenPrinting for most common drivers. You will probably need
 the foomatic-db-engine package for this package to be useful.
 .
 The foomatic-db-hpijs package adds additional printers supported by
 the HPIJS printer driver backend, particularly consumer inkjet
 printers from Hewlett-Packard.
 .
 The foomatic-db-gutenprint package adds additional printers supported
 by the Gutenprint printer driver backend, most commonly used for
 color photo printing on consumer inkjets.
 .
 The foo2zjs package adds backend support for a number of printers
 from HP and Minolta/QMS that use the Zenographics ZjStream protocol.
