NAME
foomatic-compiledb - Compile the Foomatic printer/driver database
SYNOPSIS
foomatic-compiledb[ -t type ][ -f] [ -j n ][ driver ... ]
DESCRIPTION
foomatic-compiledb
generates all PPD files or Foomatic combo XML files for all possible
printer/driver combos, or only for a selected range of drivers. It
generally should not be necessary except for people who want to
generate a set of Foomatic data files for distribution. For
configuring single printers foomatic-ppdfile(1) and especially
foomatic-configure(1) will automagically compute just what they
need.
Options
-t type
Output file type, either ppd or xml.
-f
Force: Write into the destination directory even if it already exists.
Existing files are always conserved instead of older files being
overwritten. So deleting the destination directory (rm -rf dir) and
calling foomatic-compiledb without the -f option is recommended.
