Hello !

I have emerged cups 1.1.15-r2 (the last one i suppose) but i have had a little problem
whith it while configuring my old canon bjc-620.
I am using a PPD file from Linuxprinting.org (Canon-BJC-620-bjc600-ppd.ppd)
I have exposed my problem in the canon section of the cups forum, and i got a very fast answer :
i have had to update the file /usr/lib/cups/filter/cupsomatic with this one :
http://www.linuxprinting.org/cupsomatic

It should be useful for peoples developping the cups ebuild, or people having printing problems

for a better quality print from this gem of a printer, use "ebuild" to
unpack gimp-print-cups, comment out the BJL lines in
src/main/print-canon.c and continue the ebuild process.  When setting up
the printer, choose BJC6200.  There is a similar file in gimp-print that
I did as well, but I dont think thats strictly neccessary.

The above hack stops the 620 printing some setup lines the later
printers use in between pages. 720x720 quality is quite good.
