[plug] PDF 'printer' with cups

[simon]

OK, I can print text files from linux to the pdf printer, but if I print from
windows or even print a ps file from linux it barfs.

Im guessing its because Im using the colour postscript driver in cups and it
really needs to be a raw driver of some kind (which probably means I wont be
able to print from linux anymore :))

Im searching but cant find anything to help.... any bones people can throw
would be appreciated.

muchos gracias

ps. sorry for all the top posting!
